| + | ===== Automated Import View ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Import views can also be automatically created out of Documenter. To do this: | ||
| + | |||
| + | - Select View Scripts -> Import from the SAMM menu | ||
| + | - Activate the control checkbox (fixed variables cannot be changes and therefore are not relevant to import views) | ||
| + | - Click OK and then specify the location to save the .v and .t files. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Note: | ||
| + | * This process does not capture the file path that indicates the location(s) of the data source(s) nor does it specify the correct [[howtos:workwithdata:data_format_vs_file_format|data format(s)]] needed to read the data into the model. This all must be done manually. | ||
| + | * The file generated will represent the node currently selected in Documenter. If the root node is selected all of the control variables will be included in the import view. If a calculator is selected only the variables associated with that calculator will be used. | ||
