The Moldflow interface supports all the important elements types in Moldflow. This will be fully supported only if the export is for version MPI 4.1. If the export version is a MPI 2.0 (MFL) file, only limited support is offered. Because the terms used in the property cards for these elements are similar to those in Moldflow, consult the Moldflow manual for more details.
