Is it possible to prevent this window from showing up every time I simulate the model? I tried to use the 'Suppress simulation information window' option, but it seems it does not work.

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your reply. Yes, the red button does not work. The quit option closes Vensim entirely. Also, 'close all output windows' from output does not work either.

Also, is there any dedicated section to report bugs and provide feedback? Besides, I feel that it is not very systematic to provide some random information from my computer specs, and I assume it would not lead to effective issue reporting/fixing.

Sometimes, I cannot close an output window (I assume) after simulating the model. To resolve, I must quit Vensim entirely to get rid of that output window.

Thanks! That works.

So there is no way to have the same previous behavior (copy/paste) with the modern analysis tools?

Hi,

In Vensim 8.1.0, when I copy a graph from the "Sensitivity Graph" to PowerPoint I am not able to ungroup the drawing, whereas this was possible in the previous versions. Is there a quick fix for that?

Best,

Thanks for your answer. I saved on the Desktop. But the problem is that Vensim does not load that saved file settings in the next start.
I am confident that it was normally working in the previous versions. Now I am on 8.0.9.

Hi, I right clicked on the Graph and under the Graph Options I selected Activate on variable selection. When I was closing the Vensim it asked "Do you want to save the Analysis Toolset?" and I saved in the suggested location (C:\Program Files\Vensim). However, after opening Vensim again, t...

I sent the model via email with the instructions to the steps that cause the software crash.

The .out file provides the endpoint solution, but the ***_sensitive.tab is empty. I am using Powell to estimate the confidence intervals.

Hi, I figured that during the final steps of the optimization (specifically, using Powell with Random starts), Vensim crashes without saving the optimization reports. I am on Vensim DSS 8.0.9 and running macOS version 10.15.4. In the crash report generated by the operating system, I found these that...

These are very helpful. I will try to find a proper workflow relating to Git and will share my findings later.

Dear all, I hope this message finds you well. When models get huge, tracking a single change will become extremely challenging. In this regard, I searched a little bit and figured out that Git can read .mdl files (since they are in text format), and can keep track of different versions and history o...

Hi, Regarding the previous posts, I right-clicked on the Graph in the Analysis Toolbar, and then accidentally changed the background color. Then, when I wanted to change back to the default color (which includes the hyphen, and I do not the technical name), it was gone! Check the first two screensho...

Thanks! But, the idea that Microsoft is implementing works both on Mac and Windows. I may have missed something.

I think the problem is with the design of the font color palette. In most applications such as MS Word, there is this "Automatic" color option that makes the color of the font responsive to the background, meaning that in light themes they use dark colors and the other way around. https://...

Thanks! Can we have a separate/dedicated section to report bugs and provide feedback in this forum? Also, from your side, it would be useful to include a feedback button in the software's menu. Sometimes, users feel more relaxed to report issues directly to you and you definitely can gather the data...

Hi, Hope this message finds you well. The image shows what one sees when the Dark Mode is enabled on macOS; totally uncomfortable. One possible solution would be to have a default color being inverted when the Dark Mode is enabled on the system. Link to the image: [Link removed as website attempts t...

Hi,

Do we have a spell check within the software? Otherwise, can we have it in the future releases?

Great! Many Thanks, Tom!

Hi Lorenzo, Thanks for your message. Indeed, I knew that but I wanted a faster way to view the Graph. That is why I asked about any possible shortcut key (or at least asking for its implementation in the future versions of the software). But are we sure that there is no other possible ways? Best, Ali

Hi everyone,

Hope this message finds you well. I was wondering whether there is shortcut key for the Graph in the Analysis Tools, so that whenever I select a variable, I can see the graph by pressing that key?

Thank you in advance for your replies.

Hi, There are several issues regarding Mac version fo the software. I am going to provide some of them and looking forward to see the resolutions in the future versions of the application: 1. Toolbar icons are totally old fashioned 2. The icons are also blurred 3. The texts related to icons are some...
