Using the Model Editor tool

When creating customer blocks or componets there are a number of steps involved in creating the neccesary changes in the database. To facilitate this and to eliminate some of the repetitions work that may introduce human errors the Model Editor tool has been developed.

The Model Editor is a winforms application used to create and manage models using a graphical user interface.

The Model Editor is located under your Scensum directory under the Tools\Litium.Scensum.Model.WinEditor folder.

Configure the Model Editor

Locate and open the Litium.Scensum.Model.WinEditor.exe.config file in a text editor.

IoCConfigPath

The path to the IoC file used when instantiating the template objects.

SettingXmlFilePathTemplate

The path to the settings folder, used among others to read the database connection string. If you change the relative location between the FTP server and the Settings files/folder you'll have to update this path.

User, Password

Stores the last successful login where the Remember me option was selected.

Starting the Model Editor

Locate the Litium.Scensum.Model.WinEditor.exe file and start the Model Editor by double clicking it.

A login dialogue should appear. Sign in using the Scensum back office credentials. You need to sign in with a user that has access to Interface.Template privilege. Checking the Remember checkbox will retain the username and password for the next time you start the Model Editor.
