Re: Running a model at multiple time scales

My research team is building a hydro-socioeconomic model, which is modeling available water supply and expected water demands - given economic, household and environmental demands. For a variety of reasons, water resource supply is better modeled at monthly intervals (e.g. to capture seasonality), p...

Running a model at multiple time scales

Say I wanted to have my master model operating at an annual time-scale, but I also wanted a sub-module that operates within the master model to operate at a monthly time-scale. Is this possible within Vensim?

Re: Vensim8 DSS not responding on MAC

I am using version 8.0.9 and yes, the files are synced through Dropbox.

Does opening my files from Dropbox have an impact?

Vensim8 DSS not responding on MAC

I recently purchased a license upgrade for Vensim8 DSS. When I open a model file, initially, it operates just fine. When I try to switch to another model by opening a different model file, the software stops responding. Is this a common issue for Mac users?

Re: BUG: Mac Vensim 8 output windows have black text in dark mode

For dark mode, isnt most of the issue resolved when you ('right-click') ctrl+click the sketch area and select new color (white) for the background? This seemed to solve most of my visualizing problems. Or does the dark mode issue go beyond a simple visualization preference?

Exporting model document

Using the Doc (Document tool) in Vensim you can see all the relevant information (name, equation, units, notes) for any selected variable/parameters in your model. This model document can then be saved as a .txt file, however, the format in which this data is saved is not easily transferred to excel...

Using different sets of priorities with ALLOCATE AVAILABLE

Hello, I was wondering if it would be possible to have various sets of priorities that are used under different criteria while using the ALLOCATE AVAILABLE function. For example: I have my declining available supply, I have my vector of demands by sector and I have TWO vectors of priorities by secto...
