The general tab allows access to the following settings. Some settings are not available in all versions of Vensim.
General
Close active model on open/new This setting if enabled makes Vensim use only one model at a time.
Startup using last model worked on When you start Vensim, if this is ticked, Vensim will automatically load the last model you worked on.
Suppress simulation information window (excluding errors)/Also suppress errors During simulation, Vensim displays a window with simulation information. Ticking this will suppress this window. You also have the option to suppress errors as well although this is not recommended.
Show macro variables By default, Vensim hides any macro variables when using analysis tools. Ticking this will allow them to appear.
Suppress warnings/Show all warnings (don't truncate) When ticked, Vensim will not show any simulation warnings. If there are lots of warnings, these are usually truncated. You also have the option here to display all warnings.
Measurement units Simple setting to select either CM or IN.
------------------------------------------------
Equation editor
Here you have two settings, use the legacy editor (and enable/disable "Enter" when editing an equation) or use the latest editor.
------------------------------------------------
Datasets
The datasets settings allow you to configure where datasets are loaded when you simulate (first/last) and to disable the prompt if you are about to overwrite a results file.
------------------------------------------------
Data import
This allows you to configure the "time slop". For more information on this, click here.
------------------------------------------------
Error reporting
Vensim has built in error reporting functionality that executes if any problems are encountered. You can disable this here (not recommended), and also tell the error reporting to retain any reports rather than deleting them.
