5.3.4

CAESES Release 5.3.4​

🚀 New Features​

  • BRepOperation: Extended functionality of FBrepTrimSurfaceWithUVCurves to support custom outer UV trim loops.
  • Export VTK: Added option to export VTK in ASCII format.
  • FOffsetCurve: Added warning messages to object in object tree.
  • Features: Added check for duplicate attributes in feature definitions.
  • Features: Fixed featurefunctions in interfaces.
  • Nurbs Surface: Added command propagateKnots(other surface) that raises the degree and inserts knots until it has the same degree and inserts the additional knots from the other surface.
  • Ship Modeling Workflow:
    • Skeg: Added twin skeg to the component-based ship which can be found under 'skeg'.
    • hullParameters: Enabled deadrise in hullParameters (not for waterline-based foreship).
    • hullParameters: Added a design variable for the y-position of the propeller.
    • Component-based Ship: Added option to select between different outputs: full ship, half ship.
  • Trimesh: Improved performance of cut triangles at plane.
  • Wavefront Obj Export: Improved Performance.

🔧 Changes​

  • BRep: Consider collinear case in degenerate triangle filter.
  • BRep: Exclude degenerated triangles from blocking displacement quantities.
  • BRepMorph: Surfaces are no longer allowed as source so they have to be encapsulated within BReps.
  • Camera: Moving points per key will use automatically calculated increments that are nice.
  • Camera: Add possibility to move a point in all dimensions per key similar to rotation.
  • Design Engine: Show variable names without scopes everywhere.
  • FDeltaShift: Auto-add FDeltaShifts that are selected to FDeltaSum/-Product.
  • Feature from Selection: Fixed order of object creation.
  • Features: Consider Parameter/DV state and corresponding CMDs when creating feature from selection.
  • Intersection Curve: Hide intersection index if reference position is set.
  • Plot3D Export: Switch to common file ending .xyz.
  • Plot3D Export: Refactor export method to actually consider notation and precision.
  • Ship Modeling Workflow:
    • Aftship Buttock-based: Changed usage of Design Variable (DV) relZStart of transom.
    • Aftship Section-based: Changed usage of DV relZStart of CPC.
    • Aftship Section-based: Changed usage of DV relZStart of FOS contour.
    • Bulb Basic: Changed usage of DV relLengthStart.
    • hullParameters: Changed all propeller dimensions to relative values.
    • Midship: Changed icon.
    • Foreship Waterline-based: Changed icon.
    • Foreship Waterline-based: Changed parameter value overhangAtDWL.
    • Foreship Generic: Changed icon.
    • Skeg Single: Adjusted some geometry curves.
    • Component-based Ship: Renamed shipForTransformation to editableShip, which is created when clicking on the button "Create Editable BRep".
    • Generic Ship: Updated parameters.
    • Generic Ship: Changed icon for hullParameters.
  • STL Export: Changed header format to ISO date time.
  • Sobol: Removed constraint warning for sobol.
