Simultaneous Equation Visualization

Such a great graphical visualization for simultaneous equations! Very cool feature!

Yes, they also show up in the equations.

Re: insert picture into Aux / Stock variable?

I'm not sure how it would look like on other machines, but on macOS, you can use emojis instead of regular characters.

Re: Equation Editor not showing up on 10.3.0 on Mac

And it now appears in the default resolution. I guess for the very first time it was outside of the display area (all displays).

Of course, I had done that. I only had two monitors connected and was suspecting the extra displays are acting up. They did not. Just a FYI, I have a 14-inch Mac.

Re: DLL vs Vensim Behavior

It now throws an error on 10.3.0. I agree with you. it might be the difference between ARM & Intel. Now that I installed 10.3.0, Mac throws an error (which is what we expect). But I have a VM on Mac (Windows 11 using Parallel Desktop). The VM still has the same problem (not throwing an FP error)...

Re: Help with SVG Export

Thank you, Tom. I found another workaround a few minutes ago, but I'll keep Inkscape in mind. For what it's worth, here's the workaround: I had a hidden variable, and when I dragged it outside of the area of the current variables, I think it somehow expanded the printable area. Thanks again for the ...

Re: DLL vs Vensim Behavior

The original test I did was on M3, macOS 15.3.1, and Vensim 10.2.2. I just tested it on an M4 machine (but still on macOS 15.3.1) and Vensim 10.1.3. It doesn't throw an FP error either. So, I'm not suspecting Vensim or the build version anymore. Which macOS are you using? At any rate, do you have an...

Re: DLL vs Vensim Behavior

That's okay. I guess I'm reporting a bug. division by zero happens in the power (base^power) but vensim doesn't raise any error. At least this is my understanding. I have attached the same equation. Could you please explain why rx16 = M16 doesn't throw a division by zero error?

Re: DLL vs Vensim Behavior

Additional notes: The error above, which was only raised by dll, was explicitly reported as a division by zero . Now, please use the new attached cin file to reproduce ' float invalid operation ' that is only raised by dll not Vensim. The reason for getting this is error is that if you focus on the ...

I've been working on a version of the world dynamics model that uses analytical formulation instead of hand-crafted manual table functions, and under certain conditions, DLL throws a 'float divide by zero' whereas Vensim goes through the simulation without raising any errors.
