Example

Executing the example requires a form, a button positioned on it with the Button1 identifier, the ModelBox component and the UiModel component with the UiModel1 identifier that is the data source for ModelBox. The repository contains a modeling container with the CONT_MODEL identifier and a model created in it with the MODEL identifier.

Add links to the Metabase, Ms system assemblies.

Sub Button1OnClick(Sender: Object; Args: IMouseEventArgs);
Var
    MB: IMetabase;
    ContKey: Integer;
    Model: IMsModel;
Begin
    MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
    ContKey := MB.ItemById("CONT_MODEL").Key;
    Model := MB.ItemByIdNamespace("MODEL", ContKey).EditTemporary As IMsModel;
    UiModel1.Active := False;
    UiModel1.Model := Model;
    UiModel1.Active := True;
End Sub Button1OnClick;

After executing the example the MODEL model is opened in the ModelBox component. Model parameters can be edited but they cannot be saved.
