Ventana software support forum

i would like anyone to help me how can i paste a picture inside any view in the Vensim application. i f you have any example please send it to me to follow it.

thanks very much

You can put a .bmp file in a sketch with the comment tool - just click on the import button.

There is also a BITMAP Venapp control - see Chapter 4 of the DSS Reference Suppement for that.

i can't i read the chapter but i can't do it.

help me sir please

below will work - replace temp0000.bmp with any bitmap file that you have.

:SCREEN SCREEN1
SCREENFONT,Times New Roman|10||0-0-0|-1--1--1
PIXELPOS,0
BITMAP,"temp0000.bmp",5,5,0,0

where can i put the bitmap file?

for example: i put the image "ahmad1.bmp" in drive F in my computer. and i want to paste it in any view of venapp.

when i wright your commands and tested the screen the screen appeared blank. so that i think that my error is in the place that i put the bmp file in it.


is it necessary to put it in a specific directory to be called by vensim?

the bitmap file should be in the same directory the model and vanpp file are in. This is true for all files used by the Venapp.

thanks bob very very much. yes it must be in the same directory the model and vanpp file are in.

thanks again
