Bug with charts, Dashboard additional screen

#1

hi Will,

I seem to be having an issue with both the Sensitivity type charts.
I tried to use the sensitivity range chart, but the interface builder just showed the graph block and did not allow me to create it further. i tried to delete it but that also did not work. I had the same experience with the sensitivity run chart, and hence my dashboard shows two blocks which i am not able to modify/edit or delete. i tried to edit the page, and remove the blocks, but this was six graph template and i created a bigger mess as it deleted the adjoining graphs also. So I abandoned the version (v2) and created a new version v3. where i seem to have the same issue! how do i use the scatter type charts and how to delete the blocks that are currently there?

Secondly, i deleted the dashboard page in my version 2, and tried to create a new page as the dashboard, to overcome this issue. but i found that even if i defined the dashboard as the new page in the navigation menu, the software would not run in the decisions page and gave an error that it could not find the dashboard.html page. so i guess i would have to change the code somewhere for the new dashboard page to be recognised. I have moved to a new project, so this is not an issue now, but just wanted to point this out to you, so maybe you can put a text label saying that one should not delete the dashboard.html page without changing the code on some page.

The link is given below for the project for your ready reference. it is a vensim model built on a interface builder

Hi Rajiv,

The issue with the new dashboard can be fixed in a couple of ways.
(1) You can edit the navigation tab to use the new dashboard file instead of the old. Click Navigation Settings and make sure the dashboard link uses the new file.

(2) If you have a button on your decisions page which advances the sim and then goes to the dashboard, edit that button to use the new page.

(3) As an alternative to both of the above, you may rename the file. Go to the Project Home Page. Click “Interface” to see the file manager, and then click the directory “pages”. You will end up looking at a list of HTML files for your pages. The address bar would be the following:
https://forio.com/epicenter/rajivgagarwal/lemonade-stand-v3/static/files/pages

Then delete the old dashboard file, and rename the new one to have the same file name “dashboard.html”.

Regarding sensitivity graphs – these work with Vensim only. They are a beta feature and documentation is still in progress. If you’d like a demo of how to use them, email me at wglass@forio.com (or support@forio.com) and I’d be happy to set something up.
