ModelRisk 3.0 Result Viewer released
Having problems sharing your simulation results? We have the ideal solution.
The ModelRisk Results Viewer is a free stand-alone application to review and/or make decisions based on results generated by a ModelRisk simulation. ModelRisk simulation results are stored by a ModelRisk license holder ('the modeler') in files with a .vmrs extension. The file includes any graphs and settings that the modeler has created. The ModelRisk Results Viewer can be used to:
- Open and review any ModelRisk results file (.vmrs extension);
- Edit and interrogate any of the graphs created by the modeler.
For example, the reviewer might wish to know the probability of exceeding a specific target value; - Edit any of the existing graphs and tables;
- Create new graphs and tables in new sheets (tabs)
- Save any changes to the report in a new file;
- Export selected graphs and tables to a spreadsheet. Graphs are produced in bitmap format and can be copied into other documents
This link illustrates how the Results Viewer works and lets you download of a zipped file containing the following:
- The ModelRisk Results Viewer installation file
- An example simulation results file to play with
- A readme.wri file
