• corrected problems with Reverse ply application in Layup
• re-introduced STL format import node merge tolerance, added edge sew tolerance
Manufacturing
• added support for generation of exact innermost / outermost layup surfaces as point clouds
• improved exact flat pattern calculations by preserving surface normals at ply edges
Analysis
• implemented surface offset extrusion for Nastran solid elements
• supported sandwich configurations for solid element extrusion with 3 elements through thickness
• automated the 3D solid element stiffness property calculation and export
• enabled Nastran/Optistruct exports to merge with any Nastran data file
• upgraded Optistruct SET export format
• forced laminate angles within -90..+90 for the Nastran First Ply option
• improved support for Ansys LOCAL axis systems and Ansys Existing laminate generation
Post-processing
• improved stiffness calculations for anisotropic materials, for interactive calculations
• improved automatic min-max range for stress or strain contour plots
User Interface
• enabled all windows to be considered when optimising desktop layout
• added gradient background colour in graphics windows
• allowed the opening of multiple files via Windows Explorer, in separate threads
• added diagnostics for licencing operations
• implemented licence update via user interface
• improved status bar update for progress messages
• implemented custom toolbar positioning
• implemented html help in addition to standard Windows help
