Hello,
i have Sable Version 5.1.468 (DEV)(UNICODE).

1) Is Multimedia not available in this Version? The Button "Multimedia" is disabled.
2) Is it possible to rename Screen Files?
3) How i can draw more than one "Simulationt run" in the same Graph?
4) There is no folder "Scripts" In the folder directory. How i can use "Sable-Script" or other Script languages like "JavaScript" anyway?

Thanks for help

Hello,

1) Multimedia has not bee available for a long time now. Microsoft kept changing the embedded control meaning it would work on one machine, but not another.
2) You can rename them in explorer. But any links to the screens will have to be re-done.
3) Load the 2nd run. Create a button and add the venapp command SPECIAL>LOADRUN|?
4) You can create the folder manually and place any script files you write in there.

thanks for your quick response!.
Do you know any other ways to get Videofiles and Audiofiles into a Sable Project?.

Kind regards

Unfortunately not at the moment.

What kind of video files do you need and I'll see if there is a way of supporting them?

Hi,

actually we decided to opon a Website with the VideoFile inside.
Is it possible to open a "local saved HTML-Document"?. I tried a lot, but nothing works.

Kind regards, and again a lot of thanks for help!

You can. Create a button, and enter a "Process" command. Put the path to the HTML file in and it should launch the browser.

One note. My antivirus stopped this from happening, so that might also happen to others.

Great, that works! , I tried everything, but not this. Thanks.

I have a probleme with the Legend in one of my Graphs.(look at the picture upload). I think i have the same options/properties in every Graph, but only in this Graph is always "Series2". Do you know how i can fix it?
I want only the Simulationruns in the Legend ("Series2" isn`t a simulationrun)

It looks like you might have accidentally added a custom series. Can you upload the screen file and I'll take a look?

Thanks for you help!
The file didn`t work, but i fixed the problem meanwhile.

Two further questions. Please find attached two Screenfiles. Even I open the (published) Project with SableRuntime the Project crash between this two screens. Dou you know why? and how to fix it?. Unfortunately I can`t upload the .spk file because it`s to large (~3MB).
The second question, where can I set the size (on screen) of the project to a fixed value (1280*1024)?

Kind regards

When you say it crashes, do you mean it doesn't open a file? I've tried these two screens and can find no problem.

For the resolution, go to the project properties, and hit the "Advanced" button. Under here there is the setting for screen size.

The Simulationprogram crashed (No response, Windows is looking for a solution...(German translation)). But I fixed the problem meanwhile. The solution was to delete the "%" character in the Screenfilename.


In Vensim there is a possibility to convert the ".vdf" file`s into ".dat" files to use them in other applications. Is there a possibility to do this in Sable?

Yes, create a button and use the venapp command VDF2DAT (or VDF2CSV etc)
