Demo

Visualization Button will appear on certain file types Heatmap viewer for matrix type data (.cov, .cor, .coi)

Data inpesctor for table dataset (File name conatining ~tab, ~table)

Requirements

The extension is made in follwing system settings:

• NONMEM® (ICON, v7.5.1 recommended)

• R (v4.4.0)

• R packages (xpose, xpose4, reshape2, dplyr)

Be sure to add needed PATHs in system environment variable to call the R/PsN/NONMEM functions

Optional:

• VS Code extension - NMTRAN (by Viktor Rognås)
• For MacOS, it is recommanded to use homebrew for R
• For Windows, in order to use Run R script function, environment variable should be added in PATH. For example, "C:\Program Files\R\R-4.4.0\bin" must be in system PATH
