From v 11.1.7d to 11.1.8d

• File dialog: new options to sort files and folders alphabetically ( exaple: a1 a11 a2), by dictionary ( understanding integers within name, example: a1 a2 a11), by modification date ( newer first) and by size ( bigger first). These options are accesible using the right buttom mouse menu.

• New preference: 'checkbox updated version' variable in General preferences window.

• New key bindings:

  • Control-1 to 4 for common views

  • Control-t to set the focus in the command line to write commands.

Preprocessing:

• Selection 'Children of', to select child entities of a picked parent.

• Entities of frozen layers drawn in gray

• Fixed bug with orthogonal view to z axis, the model is drawn in a wrong place.

• Fixed error saving a mesh with only nodes but not elements (nodes were not saved)

Postprocessing:

• New Vtk format export (xml version .vtu, .vtp) and enhanced the Vtk import.

• Open Multiple files: corrected problem when reading an unordeder list of files.

• Several analysis, different results: corrected problem which arised when doing first a result visualizacion ( c.fill, display vectors) of a results of analysis/step AS1, then deforming the model with another results of another analysis/step AS2, and then gid tries to actualize over the deformed model the first result visualization.

• Polygonal cut: corrected crash when a polygonal cut was deleted and another postprocess model was loaded.

• Iso-surfaces: corrected problem when a mesh is drawn as points, and it was switched off, it was still drawn if it had an isosurface.

• Iso-surfaces: corrected problem when all meshes were switched off and a zoom frame was selected, the iso-surface was moved out of the view.

• Line Thickness: support for several gauss points in line elements, before only 1 gp was handled.

• Line Thickness: correct drawing of thick+nice lines for render flat and for render smooth.

• Line Thickness: correct update of line thickness visualization when some result surface/line thickness options were changed.

• Smooth Contour Lines: added this new result visualization, to draw contour lines using smoothed gauss points results, like Smooth Contour Fill.

• Iso-surfaces: corrected problem ( too much memory was used) when converting iso-surfaces into cuts ( proper meshes).

• Contour lines: new option to set the widht of the lines of this visualization, they will also be scaled when creating high resolution images.

• Animating smooth contour fill: corrected crash when fixing global limits when several meshes are used at different time steps.

Customization:

• New command GiD_Book material|condition create|set|exists to create a book, check if exists or set the book of a condition or material

• GiD_Info materials: new option to list materials of a book: GiD_Info materials($book)

• GiD_ModifyData: new option -book to change a material or condition to other book

• GiD_CreateData: material now return the number of the new material

• GiD_Info Mesh -post NumElements: implemented missing option -post -step $step_index

• GiD_Info Mesh -post Nodes: added -step $step_index option
