Highlights
Highlights of this release include an option to display mid-side node results, new Parts View to display CAE part structure/hierarchy information available in the model file, and some general enhancements and bug fixes. Please read below for more details.
A new option to show results on mid-side nodes on 2nd order elements is introduced. This option, in the form of a checkbox in the Contour, Iso and Tensor panels, controls what HyperView will do in case of mid-side nodes. For example, if the result file has 2nd order elements without results on the mid-side nodes, turning this checkbox ON and contouring will result in HyperView calculating results on the mid-side nodes and displaying it. If the checkbox is OFF, HyperView will not show any results on mid-side nodes. Please note that this option is available even when the result file contains mid-side node results. Refer to user’s guide for more details.

A new Parts view in the Results browser is introduced. This view displays the CAE part structure/hierarchy information that is typically present in the model file as metadata. The top half of the view displays the model hierarchy and some part attributes and the bottom half of the view displays the selected entity attributes. Selection by part or component and show/hide/isolate is available. Color by part option is also available.
