Model using xw extension won't run in v7.0.3

Q&A
1

For years I have been using the xw extension to create multiple GUI tabs in my simulation for more complex user selection options and inputs, such as the option to select multiple items in a list (xw:create-multi-chooser), and also to interactively generate what is effectively a table of widgets with a user-modifiable number of rows.

I just downloaded and installed NetLogo v 7.0.3 and the xw extension no longer works, and I cannot even find information on it anymore. From what I can tell NetLogo v7.0.3 only has the basic widgets and doesn’t have any other extension to create more GUI tabs and more complex user interfaces, so I cannot see any way to modlify my code or use a different extension to achieve the same functionality.

Any suggestions?

Hi Susan,

Thank you for reporting this issue. The xw extension is a third party extension currently managed by Nicolas Payette, and can be found here. I would recommend contacting him ([email protected]) to see if the extension can be updated for NetLogo 7. Let us know if you have any questions or if you run into any other issues!
