===Analysis window Model Cache pane===
For any analysis method, the Analysis window toolbar always contains the following toolbar buttons:


Data that is used to create models and predictions during data analysis as well as all of the models and predictions created from this data is automatically cached. After a model is created, the model and the data used to create it are added to the cache. If new data is loaded and a prediction is made, this new data and the prediction are added to the cache. Every time you edit data and create a new model or prediction from the data, each version of the modified data and the corresponding model or prediction are added to the cache. The Model Cache pane displays this complete history of all your cached items-all of the data that was used to create models and predictions during data analysis as well as all of the models and predictions that were created from this data-in a hierarchical view.

* A Workspace Browser button [[Image:Workspace_Browser_icon.png|21x19px]].
To reload a previously created model:
# Set the Model Cache view to the mode which best organizes the list to help you find the item desired (see the [[AnalysisWindow_ModelCachepane#Model Cache pane view|Model Cache pane view]] descriptions for suggestions.)
# Locate the model to load in the list (Note that after other sorting criteria are met, models on a specific branch are sorted by date in all views.)
# Double-click on the old model to load it into the Analysis window. The calibration data corresponding to the model will also be automatically loaded (if it is available in the cache.) Right-clicking the model will give other options - see [[AnalysisWindow_ModelCachepane#Manipulating cached items|Manipulating cached items]].
For more usage hints, see the [[AnalysisWindow_ModelCachepane#Model Cache pane view|Model Cache pane view]] descriptions below.
 
'''Note:''' By default, the Model Cache pane is turned on when Solo first opens. You can close the Model Cache pane by clicking the Close ("X") button in the upper right hand corner of the pane. To turn the Model Cache on again, on the Tools menu on the Analysis window, click View Cache, and then select a viewing option. Models and data are cached even if the Model Cache pane is not open.
 
Multiple options are available to you for changing the Model Cache view, managing your cache, and manipulating cache items. See:
 
* [[AnalysisWindow_ModelCachepane#Model Cache pane view|Model Cache pane view]].
* [[AnalysisWindow_ModelCachepane#Cache management|Cache management]].
* [[AnalysisWindow_ModelCachepane#Manipulating cached items|Manipulating cached items]].
 
===Model Cache pane view===
 
The options to change the Model Cache pane view are found in two locations:
 
* In the Model Cache pane itself under Cache Settings and View
* On the Tools menu (the View Cache option) for the Analysis windows
 
:''Options to change the Model Cache pane view''
 
::[[Image:Model_cache_settings_options.png|171x56px]]
 
You can select from three different organizational views:
 
* View Cache by Lineage-In the View Cache by Lineage view, the cache items are sorted by the parent data item. Under the parent data item, the child items (modified data, model, and predictions) are sorted by the timestamps at each modification point.
: This is a convenient view to use in identifying a set of models which were all created from a specific data set or ''version'' of a data set (such as a specific data set with different sets of included variables and/or samples.)
 
:''View Cache by Lineage view''
 
::[[Image:Model_cache_view_lineage.png|247x288px]]
 
* View Cache by Date-In the View Cache by Date view, all cached items are simply sorted by creation date in chronological order.
: This is a convenient view to use when attempting to locate a model or data which was used on a specific date. For example, to reload a model which you knew was built yesterday, switch to the Date view, locate yesterday's date, and expand the tree. All data and models used on that day will be listed. Reload any model by double-clicking it.
 
:''View Cache by Date view''
 
::[[Image:Model_cache_view_date.png|247x288px]]
 
* View Cache by Type-In the View Cache by Type view, all cached items are simply sorted by object type-data, model, or prediction.
: This is a convenient view to use when attempting to locate a specific type of model when the data used and model's created date are not known. All data, models, and predictions are listed under their own branch, and then sorted by name (for data), type (for models and predictions), and date. For example, to locate an MCR model you know you created on some previous date, switch to the Type view, expand the Models branch, and locate the MCR models in that branch. You can then reload any model by double-clicking it.

===Cache management===
 
Several options are available to you for managing your cache. You can modify all of these options in the Options dialog box.
 
'''Note:''' For a detailed discussion about the Options dialog box, see [[Solo_CommonApplicationFeatures|Options dialog box]].

Specifies the folder in which all of your cached information is stored. By default, the cached items that do not exceed the maxdatasize value (see [[AnalysisWindow_ModelCachepane#maxdatasize|maxdatasize]] below) are stored automatically in your system's TEMP folder and remain in this folder as long as they do not exceed the maxage value. (See [[AnalysisWindow_ModelCachepane#maxage|maxage]] below.) For all operating systems other than Macintosh (a "Mac"), this means that even if you close Solo (or crash and reboot your computer, or just reboot your computer), the cached items are immediately available when you restart Solo or your computer.
'''Note:''' If you are running Solo on a Mac, the first time that you cache an item, you are prompted to choose a folder other than the TEMP folder. Because the TEMP folder is sometimes deleted when you restart a Mac, if you are running Solo on a Mac, you should specify a different setting for your cachefolder.

'''Note: '''No option is available in Solo to delete a project folder after you create it. You can delete old project folders only by manually locating the project folder on your computer and deleting the folder.

===Moving a Cache===
You can copy and move your Model Cache folder to a new location without any special consideration. When moving to a new computer, copy the cache folder to the new EVRI [[evridir | home folder]] and restart Matlab. Once the folder is in the new location select '''File/Change Cache''' from the Workspace Browser and select the new folder. The cache will refresh automatically. From the Matlab command line the cache folder location can be change with:
modelcache('changecachedir','path/to/new/location')
If you move your modelcache and experience problems getting the Model Cache to recognize the new location you may need to clear your preferences (matlabprefs.mat) file. Contact helpdesk@eigenvector.com for more details on how to do this.
===Model Cache Folders===
The model cache is stored on disk in the [[evridir | EVRI home folder]]. It consists of a parent folder (named "modelcache" by default) a sub-folder containing the cache database (named "evri_cache_db"), and project folders. Initially only the default project (named "general") is present. Adding new projects will create new folders along side the "general" folder.

Analysis window toolbar

For any analysis method, the Analysis window toolbar always contains the following toolbar buttons:

  • A Workspace Browser button Workspace Browser icon.png.
  • A Plot scores and sample statistics button Plot scores sample statistics icon.png.
  • An Edit Analysis Methods Options button EA Method Options toolbar button.png. This button opens the Options dialog box, which lists options for controlling the settings that are specific to the currently selected analysis method such as confidence limits settings, algorithm selections, and constraints. Some analysis methods have more options than others. See Options dialog box.

The Analysis window toolbar is updated dynamically with other toolbar buttons based on the selected analysis mode. These toolbar buttons carry out actions or open tools that produce plots and other visual aids that assist you in examining a model. Place your mouse pointer over a toolbar button to open tooltip text for the button.
