    Hello.
    How to proceed to copy and paste an element (transformer, line, ect.)?
    The Ctrl+C change the mouse pointer but the copy and paste functions doesn't seems to work... as the Ctrl+V command.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Rodrigo,

    Yes you are rigth, these errors are consequence of the big structural changes that I'm implementing on DSSim-PC. Right now I'm accelerating the GUI and several functional features of DSSim-PC. The final release is not ready yet, however, I can upload a pre-release version for update while I finish the other features. This pr-release is working ok, there are some changes on the method for recording data, but in general it should owrk fine.
    I'll upload the update today, so for updating your system just close and open DSSim-PC, when the system ask you for updating your system just say YES, the program will do everything automatically.
    Maybe you will find a couple of Bugs, If that's so, please report them.

    Best regards

    Davis

      Hi, Davis, thanks for your answer!

      I noticed that a .dsp extension is a text file. Could you provide the sintax? Maybe it would be faster (for now, of course!) to arrange the text file instead of place each component!

      Thanks again.

    Hi Rodrigo,

    Ok no problem,

    The first row is a header that describes the version of the OpenDSS Code generator, do not touch this header!!

    The circuit description starts from the second row and the columns are:

    -Index (unique number given to the element, it is a primary key so it cannot be repeated)
    -Type of draw (ELEMENT, CONNECTION,LINE,SYSTEM)
    -OpenDSS code, is the code for being compiled by OpenDSS separated by :
    -The draw of the element (thsi draw es described as a set of vectors within the database)
    - Coord X (coord X of the element in pixels)
    - Coord Y (coord Y of the element in pixels)
    -Rotation of the element (number between 0 and 3)
    -Name of the element (must be unique)
    -Connection point X of the first terminal of the element (in pixels)
    -Connection point Y of the first terminal of the element (in pixels)
    -Connection point X of the second terminal of the element (in pixels)
    -Connection point Y of the second terminal of the element (in pixels)
    -Bus where the terminal 1 of the element is connected
    -Bus where the terminal 2 of the element is connected
    -Extra info (important for lines and connections)

    Please let me know how it works

    Best regards

    Davis

      Hi Davis! Thanks for your help! With this sintaxe, considereing the restrictions indicated, I used Microsoft Excel to create and expand many of elements and it saved me a mount of time! Thanks again!
