Hi
As part of the model description I need to put a table in the interface. Apparently neither Text nor Text Entry supports table tag in HTML, so how I can have a table in the interface? Thanks |

Hi Aziza,
You can include a table in a user interface designer interface by using a Data Table or Financial table. You can see a sample of both tables here: http://forio.com/simulate/mbean/table-example You can copy this example and review how the tables were created in the user interface designer here: http://forio.com/simulate/mbean/table-example/copy/ Here's an explanation of how the Data Table works: http://forio.com/simulate/docs/index.php/page/164 Here's an explanation of how the Financial Table works: http://forio.com/simulate/docs/index.php/page/166 Best, Michael |

Sorry maybe I wasn't very clear on explaining what I want to do. The table I want to include has nothing to do with the variables in the model or the simulation runs. It contains some information about the model which should be presented in a tabular format. Something like:
Variable Definition Var1 This variable has come from blah blah 1 Var2 This variable has come from blah blah 2 I have used Financial table and Data Table before and haven't been able to do this in those components, I also looked at the links you provided me. Are you sure these components are right for my need? Thanks |

Hi Aziza,
I now understand. You want to create a static table in the user interface designer. The easiest way to do that is to use multiple Text components. If you have "Snap to Grid" turned on (found under the "Arrange" drop-down) it should be easy to set this up. You can also align rows and columns of Text components by selecting a row or column of Text components and aligning them using the "Align" drop-down. Best, Michael |
