Bugs in the latest Vensim DSS version

Post by LAUJJL »

Hi

The first bug is the more annoying. If one uses a string variable, and one wants to modify its value with the sim setup button, before launchig a simulation it erases all the constant values coming from an eventual .cin file. The only solution is to modify the equation of the string file, to avoid having to change it. Besides the string variable does not appear in the .cin file either. it is rather cumbersome in my case, because I have to recompile the model if i want to change the string value, and the compilation time takes between 5 and 10 minutes, when the run takes 30 seconds.

The other bug is less annoying and was already there in the preceding version. When in the control panel, datasets, one wants to erase runs aappearing in the left window, one can only do it, one by one, which is cumbersome if one wants to erase a lot of runs at the same time. It was possible to highlight many runs at the same time and erase them together in older versions.

Regards.

Can you email the model with the string variable bug to us please (vensim@vensim.com)?

I'll look at the other issue, it should be possible to delete more than one run at a time.
