1.7
Updated file readers
Update to ANSYS, ABAQUS and HyperWorks support to 2021. Various other reader fixes
Performance and appearance
Improved visualization of undefined results
1.6
Sections manager
If there are sections in the file, the Sections node in the feature tree offers a grid of all available sections per category to choose what to display for top and bottom section groups. Defaults will set the Top section group to contains the last section for every category and set the Bottom section group to contains the first section for every category.
Experimental Wavefront Obj export
Added export of triangle-based unstructured grid geometries in the current view to Wavefront OBJ (.obj + .mtl) files.
Ease of use
Improved performance and stability
1.5
Multi view/model support
A dockable Views panel has been added for multi-view management. Drag and drop support!
Support for encrypted VTFx files
Roll navigation
Switch to roll navigation by holding Shift while rotating.
Ease of use
Feature tree enhancements. Model and view main nodes added for more intuitive setup and usage.
Unification of context menu and properties.
1.4
View clipping planes
Clipping planes are used to clip parts of the geometry in the scene to be able to look inside. Anything behind (on the opposite side of the plane normal) the given planes is hidden.
Data Provider support
The Data Provider framework is used to implement plugins that feed CAE data to Ceetron SDKs and applications (e.g. Analyzer). It works both for file-based data providers (a.k.a. readers) and in-memory ones for real-time data synchronization.
Append to VTFx
Added the option to append a case to an existing VTFx model file. When saving, select an existing VTFx file and you will be prompted if you want to append or overwrite.
Search for element/node
It is now possible to search for an element or node using id or index.
Ease of use
Added option to repick plot curve position.
Added main panels for: Annotations, Animations, Cutting planes, Isosurfaces, Isovolumes and Particle traces.
Added multiselect to toolbar.
1.3
Video tutorials
Analyzer now offers video tutorials. Go to all tutorials from Help->Tutorials… or click on the help button in the top right corner of each settings panel to go directly to the current topic.
Linux and Mac support
Ceetron Analyzer is available on Linux (Ubuntu 16.04) and MacOS.
Situations
Added the concept of Situations. A situation stores the current view-/model setup and element sets. You can apply these situation data to the current model/view to recreate the setup from the situation. Situations are saved to disk and will be listed in the workspace tree when you open a model in Analyzer. Situations can be exported/imported to fit with your current workflow.
MPEG export
File->Save as Video: Exports the current animation to file as an MPEG video.
File->Export->Animation State by State: Export transient animation to MPEG video file without setting up the animation first. This exporter loads and exports one state at a time, thus decreasing the memory footprint of the animation export. Use this version if you run into memory issues using the standard animation export.
Recovery
Analyzer will continuously store a backup of your current setup. If Analyzer should terminate unexpectedly; you will be prompted to continue from this saved setup.
View position by edit fields
Specify eye, vrp, up vectors manually. View menu->Set View Point…
Automatic rotation point
Rotate around mouse cursor. View->Use Automatic Rotation Point (toggle)
Contour lines
Analyzer offers a simplified contour lines system available for parts, cutting planes, isosurfaces and isovolumes. Added contour lines settings (“Num contour levels” and “Contour mode”).
Unicode support
Support for JCK languages.
Element surface results
Added support for element surface results to picking and plotting.
New color scheme
Blue to white to red
Numerical format
Specify which numerical format to use in the Settings panel under “Advanced”. Offers different format setup for results and coordinates.
Point size
Added point size to part settings.
Line width
Added line width to part settings.
Plotting
Improved plotting functionally. Add curves from multiple selected items at once from the list in the selection panel. Change result on existing plots.
Animation setup
Added cancel button during animation setup.
Added option to animate over multiple state groups.
Image export
Image can set specified width and height.
Mirror settings
Added mirror settings for parts.
Settings
Added OpenGL selection to settings panel. (Desktop OpenGL, OpenGLES, Software OpenGL.)
Added log level to settings panel. Setting a high log level (Info or Debug) can help identify problems but will also reduce application performance. Standard log level is recommended for normal usage.
Command line parameters
Call the Ceetron Analyzer executable with the parameter “-clearall” to delete all stored settings for Analyzer. Note: This will also clear you license info and you will need to specify this on next start up.
