Replacing Tabbed Arrays to avoid "hard-coding"

I have a working model which uses Tabbed Arrays. I've pasted an example below. I would like to revise the model to read data from an Excel file instead. The variable being defined does not vary with time; it depends on two subscript variables, "Age" and "Gender". I tried using GE...

Long-term hospital capacity planning model

Hello, My colleagues and I are defining a long-term general hospital capacity planning model. It will have a time horizon of about 70 years, and will essentially model population ageing and its impact on needs for services in different hospital sub-systems (emergency department, inpatient, outpatien...

Re: Exporting CLD for presentation

I just opened the SVG file by double clicking on it, and it opened in a browser, where the top and bottom were truncated (in both Chrome and Edge). It does work with Inkscape.

Thanks.

Re: Exporting CLD for presentation

The new version does solve the problem of missing arrowheads in the loop. However, it wasn't clear to me how one can control the zoom get an svg file that shows the complete picture. The solution I am using now is as follows: - Add blank text boxes on the top right and bottom left, leaving gaps betw...

Re: Exporting CLD for presentation

Thank you.

Following up on this, is there a way to get the print in a single PDF page? That would also help to present the CLD stage-by-stage.

Exporting CLD for presentation

Hi, I would like to build up my CLD in stages to show it in a presentation and in document. Using View->Export as SVG gives me files in which the loop arrowheads are missing (please see attachment, R1, for example). When I print to pdf, the CLD is spread across multiple (two) pages -- I don't see an...

Re: Screen display

Thank you! I realise now it is much easier to just hide elements. Strangely, setting the zoom to a fixed % does not work.

Screen display

I realise this is a basic question -- I did look in help and search the forum, but I'm probably missing something obvious. I'm using Vensim DSS 8.0.9. I need to present a CLD loop by loop, inserting snips into a presentation. I would like to take the final CLD and delete some variables and links, so...

"Formatting..." message in View As Text mode

I have a large number of tabbed arrays and other definitions that are much easier to copy-paste in the View -> As Text mode rather than in Sketch mode. Making the changes in the text editor has worked well most of the time, but quite often I get a message "Formatting..." (see attachment). ...
