antonio6vieira Posted June 25, 2015 Posted June 25, 2015 Hi everyone! Is it possible to, after having created a model, to subclass it and edit some processes of the original one? The point is to make sort of a copy paste of the created model, in the same file. Thanks
dsturrock Posted June 25, 2015 Posted June 25, 2015 Yes. Many people miss the fact that you can click on the Project item in the Navigation panel. This exposes a great deal of extra project-level capabilities like copying objects and maintaining symbols.
antonio6vieira Posted June 25, 2015 Author Posted June 25, 2015 So, the purpose is to copy - paste the model? If this is the case, it seems Simio can't copy my model - it's a very huge one.
dsturrock Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 How do you define "huge"? Simio's ability to copy is limited only by your system memory. Did you receive an "out of memory" error? You can also save your project and then load it as a library from the Project Home ribbon. You can then use the items on the ribbon illustrated above to subclass, copy, or clone objects from that library.
antonio6vieira Posted June 26, 2015 Author Posted June 26, 2015 Well I said it is huge cause I very often get an out of memory error and my machine has 8 GB. However, in this case it just does nothing. I click to paste and it stays processing for a while. After that nothing happens. It also doesn't let me load the project as a library. "Cannot load 'Final@lab_v16' because it has the same originating project id as '[Project Library]' If you want to open both of these projects as libraries, you must create a new project and move the models from one of them into this new project. Then open the new project and the other existing project."
