Re: it is frustrating!

It looks like you've maybe saved the model to the root folder on your computer (which isn't allowed). Try saving to your documents folder. Another problem: Tom Fiddeman use an i/o-tool to show a graph. But there is no i/o-tool in the Version 10.1.3. The use of sliders shows no change in the highligh...

Re: Lock tool will not unlock on Mac Sonoma 14.1.1

No, this is the general Vensim support forum.

I think I understand what you are saying, if you click on one of the other icons to create sketch elements, the diagram will be unlocked.

Re: Lock tool will not unlock on Mac Sonoma 14.1.1

1. the lock tool does not 'unlock'. Can you send me a picture of what it should look like unlocked? Are you using an existing packaged model? Packaged models are read only (so the sketch is locked). If you are not using an existing packaged model, what happens when you click one of the sketch tools...

Re: Lock tool will not unlock on Mac Sonoma 14.1.1

It's working fine for me. Are you using an existing packaged model? Packaged models are read only (so the sketch is locked). If you are not using an existing packaged model, what happens when you click one of the sketch tools (such as "move", the tool to the right of the lock sketch button).

Try option (Mac) or ALT (Win) and up/down, that should do it.

Re: Vensim training

For the model I am running multiple scenarios with different parameter values. I am doing this manually which takes up a lot of time and is sensitive to errors. I thought the use of scripts was only available for the Pro version of Vensim, but looking at your answer I think it is also possible in D...

Re: Can the Vensim PLE version achieve seasonal forecasting?

Start by adding units to your model. I would not bother simulating or doing anything else until your model passes this basic quality check. I can immediately see a problem (you've got a variable called month).

Re: Units tips or laws

Units should be (and are) easy. If you have a level and you have cars in it, the unit should be "cars". If you have people in a population variable, the unit should be "people". If you have a rate such as birth rate, it should be people/year (or per month etc). - For auxiliary va...
