Managing Explorations and Models

A SAS Visual Statistics exploration consists of one or more models and the associated data. You can create an exploration using any of the following methods:

To create a model, click the icon for that model type in the toolbar.

To rename a model, select EditRename from the main menu. Enter a new name in the New name field, and click OK. This affects the current model in the model pane.

To duplicate a model, click the icon in the upper right corner of the model, and select Duplicate. This creates a model named Copy of Model Name with the same settings as the copied model. You might duplicate a model if you have a good model, but you want to try out some enhancements without overwriting the current model. This feature enables you to leave the original model intact while you adjust the duplicate model. This affects the current model in the model pane.

To delete a model, click the in the upper right corner of the model. Every time you delete a model, you are asked to confirm the action.
