new GUI and vensim on the web

Post by LAUJJL »

Hi

I have seen that a Vensim model runing on the web cannot use constants external to the model. Does it mean that if a .cin file is created, one cannot use that file to create a specific scenario to run the model?

Second question.

i would lke to create a Venapps like interface with the new Guy usable on the web. As the old Venapps is not usable on the web and is anyhow not included in the new GUY I would like to create a model for the web. But there is not any documentation about how to use the control in the new GUY and no examples. Is there a date planned to have this documentation available? And when will it be possible to download external constants with models on the web?

Best regards;

Any CIN files will be loaded into the published web file. So yes, you can use them.

I'm working on this at the moment, I've just finished updating the help to remove all the old style GUI images, so the next release will have some help and examples.

Hi

Will it be possible to build models that look approximately like the one's built with the old Venapps without the Sable?
Of course if it looks like the old Venapps with Sable it would be better. But without the sable is already good enough for me.

We are still working on making the web side better. The latest release (10.3) allows data files to be used. But we still need a developer with web experience that can help with this.
