Models

Models found in the project are listed in the model overview area, below the folders. By default, the models are ordered by run number. It is advised, but not mandatory, that models are named as a number (e.g., 001.mmdl), or prepended with run (e.g., run1.mod or run001.mod). If you are working with NONMEM models, refer to “NONMEM template control file syntax” for additional NONMEM-specific information.

When models are double-clicked, the model is opened in the code-editor (if an editor is specified in the Software integration Extensions sub-tab in the Settings dialog or in Pirana’s built-in NM-TRAN editor.

The list of models in the overview area can be managed in the following ways:

–Condensed versus expanded mode

–List versus tree view

–Change the columns displayed

–Refresh model information

–Hide and unhide models

–Filtering model list

–Identify models and results by color

–Flag models and results

Pirana also provides functionality for performing the following model file tasks:

–Duplicate model files
(Duplicate NLME models; for NONMEM models, click “Duplicate models”)

–Batch editing of models

–Open the input dataset

–Attach folders to selected model

–Rename model file
(Rename NLME models; for NONMEM models, click “Rename a model file”)

–View difference with reference model

–Delete a model
