copy/pasting Vensim model in MS Word

Post by sesivyer »

For a school assignment I need to be able to copy my Vensim model into a MS Word doc. When I attempted to copy/paste it into Word, I got an error saying there is not enough memory to complete the operation. I am using Vensim on a Mac with Crossover software.

Did the copy from Vensim fail or the paste into word? One thing to do is simply use Screen Shots rather than copy/paste. I didn't think this worked at all with crossover so what you describe is actually progress.

copying from Vensim

Post by rdudley »

In MS word copy past from Vensim should be very easy.

Lock the sketch
Highlight the model sketch you want to copy by dragging the cursor around it
Press Cntl-C
Past into word to get a "picture"

For graphs: Just click on the clipboard icon in the upper left of the graph.... past into word.

I don't think that these operations do not use a lot of memory.
