Before proceeding to analyse the model results it is advisable to return
to the beginning, the GREAT-ER menu, to save the scenario:
select Save from the menu: all scenario settings and the model
results will be saved in the scenario's directory. A dialog informs you
of its successful completion.
The GREAT-ER user interface provides users with two options to save
scenario data: save and save as.
writes all data from the active scenario to the
file system under the directory specified for the scenario, reports
successful completion
and lets you proceed with the active scenario.
works slightly differently.
First you have to specify a new
name for the scenario (scenarios are identified by their names, so unique
names are recommended) and then you may edit the scenario comments.
Figure 2.21: Save As Dialog
Leaving with "OK", you have to specify a new scenario directory. The
rules for this are the same as mentioned above and the directory will
be created automatically.
Figure 2.22: Save As Directory Dialog
A summary dialog will report successful completion and remind you of
something very important:
under GREAT-ER after Save As the active scenario
stays the original
one. If you intend to continue working on the previously saved scenario,
you have to
load it explicitly. This also means that the original scenario
has to be closed in order to eliminate the current changes for it.
If you select save for the
scenario currently open, all earlier settings are overwritten.
