Stella online is updated regularly to fix reported issues and apply enhancements. When you log in at the exchange you will be using the most up to date version of the software.
As some of the changes that are made may cause the software to behave differently, we keep a log here of when the online software was updated, the corresponding desktop release number, and note any behavior changes that should be expected.
Models with security settings are not supported in the online model editor. Uploading anything with security set will now provide an error message.
The documentation tab has been added to the panel allowing you to see (and write) documentation for variables in both the model editor and the CLD editor. It is possible to see equations in the online model player (they show up in the panel as read only text). There were also some bugs fixed that prevented models with optimization settings and model layer navigation links from retaining those settings if they were uploaded, edited, and then downloaded.
The navigation sequence for the isee Exchange has changed somewhat making it clearer which tool you are using when logged in. See Getting Started Online for a description of navigation.
There were a number of usability issues when using Safari on the iPad that were addressed. Note that it is important to have the most current version of the iPad OS.
We have improved online model sharing. See Sharing Models Online for more details.
The desktop versions of Stella now have a CLD editing interface. CLDs created online will open in that interface. When uploading anything created on the desktop, you should match the destination (CLD or Model) to what it was on the desktop.
The creation of graphs has been changed to open a list of variables to graph when you click on the button. See Getting Started Online for a description.
Graph legends will now default to the bottom for new graphs.
This has changed to make it easier to select loops. See Loop Label Properties for details.
You can copy and past model structure by highlighting it and then using the Right-Click (Ctrl+Click on the Mac) menu to copy and paste.
If you click on a Builtin in the list in the equation editor the arguments will be displayed as _name_ instead of <name>. This means that double clicking will select the entire argument, making it easier to replace.
