The model screen page also opens up automatically when you upload a model to AnyLogic Cloud.

The model screen consists of the following tabs:

• General tab — Provides general information about the model: its name, description, thumbnail image, categories, application areas, simulation methods, and tags. If you are a developer of the model, you can modify this information there, as well.
  The footer of the thumbnail image shows the number of model runs and likes.
  This section is the only section visible to the users with the User role. It also allows to download the model’s source files to any user with the User role if the model owner uploaded the model’s source files to AnyLogic Cloud, and one of the model’s developers enabled the Allow to download sources of the latest model version option in the Publish model section of the Sharing Settings tab beforehand.
  Other tabs are available to the users with the Developer role. Administrators of Private Cloud environments also have access to all settings of the models that users published in these environments.
  Below the model thumbnail, the following buttons are available:

  play_arrow Run	Run the model and view its animation in the dialog.
  Open	Edit the last version of the model in AnyLogic 9.
  favorite Like	Like the model.
  code Embed	Get the embedding code for the model (works for Public models only).
  image Change thumbnail	Opens the drop-down menu with the following options: Change image — Replace the model image on the General tab and the model tile (visible on the title screen of Cloud). Click the option. In the subsequent dialog, select an image file. To do that, you can either drag and drop the desired file directly into the dialog space, or click Upload an image, locate the desired file, then double-click the file or select it and click Open. The following image formats are supported: GIF, PNG, and JPG. Delete image — Delete the thumbnail image. Click the option, then confirm the action in the subsequent dialog.

  Under these, the social network sharing buttons are available, allowing you to quickly post the model on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Telegram, or WeChat. In Private Cloud, this functionality can be disabled in configuration files.
  For the model’s developer, the following fields are available for editing:
  • Model name — The name of the model.
  • Categories — Lists categories this model belongs to, for better sorting on the Public models screen.
    The list of categories is built-in in the Cloud instance and cannot be modified.
  • Application areas — Can be entered manually; a short excerpt describing the application area for this model.
  • Simulation methods — Specifies the modeling approach used when building this model.
  • Tags — Lists this model’s tags, which can be used for search and filtering.
  • Description — The arbitrary description of the model.
    Model developers can include an external link in the description.
