LPSolve Notes

Hello, and welcome to this LPSolve Knowledge Base video. In this video, we’ll take a look at how notes are used within the LPSolve program.

Notes are fairly straightforward, but they can be very powerful. They allow you to document and describe important aspects of the formulation you’re creating. For example, notes can be used to record what changes were made, who worked on the formulation, and the reasons behind those changes.

You can access the notes feature from the Notes menu. From there, you can either create a new note or browse existing notes.

When you choose to create a new note, a window opens with fields for the author, the note title, and the body of the note itself. Once you’ve entered the information, you can click Save to keep the note, or Cancel if you decide not to save it. Each note is associated with the file you’re currently working on.

After saving a note, you can browse all of the notes attached to that file. In this example, I’ve created several notes, and you can move back and forth between them using the arrow buttons.

If needed, you can also edit an existing note to add or update information. Just make your changes, click Save, and those updates will be incorporated into the note.

To delete a note, simply check the delete box. An option will appear asking you to confirm the deletion. Select Yes, and the note will be removed.

That’s all there is to using notes in LPSolve. They’re a very handy way to keep a historical record of a formula, including the changes made and the reasoning behind them.
