Ventana software support forum

Hi there,
I have adapted one of your standard Venapp's and have been working on doing a sensitivity - monte carlo analysis on it. I have the model setup to run from 0 wks to 13wks. I have the sensitivity graph setup and it works great. I then thought how do I show the distribution of failures I get and how frequently do they occur. So I used a bar graph - with sensitivity added in. So I set the Bar Graph Toolset to pick up the sensitivity at the last week = 13. I have set the sensitivity to 20000 runs and I get a lovely chart showing the distribution for wk 13. This got me thinking can you advise how can I make the week number variable so that I can move the lever and to say week 10 and view the distrubition for week 10, right now I cant find a way forward.

Thanks

You can set the bar graph tool to display at Special Time rather than End of the simulation. Then you can modify the time with TIMEAXIS>SPECIALTIME.

Thanks Tom will try this later thanks

hi Tom tried this code but I cant get it to go. Looks like I cant get it to determine the weekno can u please help thanks

I think you need to do something to trigger a screen refresh when the weekno slider gets moved; otherwise the special time update won't happen. I'm not sure that adding a command or screen redirect (to the same screen) will work with the slidevar, so you might have to change to a button or something. Tony might have more insight.
