Opening and editing modifications in the network editor

In the network editor, you can open and edit modifications of a project. When you edit and save a modification, all changes become effective in the scenarios that access the edited modification.

If Vissim cannot open a faulty modification, a message is displayed. You have the following options:

  • Show the base network.
  • Delete the faulty modification from the scenario. If the modification depends on other modifications, delete them as well if no further modifications depend on them.
  • Close the project.

1.  On the File menu, click > Scenario Management > Open Modification.

Tip: In the project explorer, right-click the scenario of your choice to open the Vissim network in the network editor.

The Open Modification window opens.

2.  Click the desired entry.

3.  Confirm with OK.

In the network editor, the modification is opened. The title bars and frames of non-selected elements of the program interface, e.g. of the network editor, project explorer or quick view are no longer displayed in blue (default color), but in maroon by default.

4.  Edit the modification.

5.  Use one of the following options to save the modification:

  • Press Ctrl+S.
  • On the File toolbar, click  Save.

The changes are saved to the modification. The modification then becomes effective in all scenarios that reference the modification.
