GiD - The personal pre and post processor
17.5.0d
What's new 17.5.0d
General:
New tool: View → View → Link external process… to link with other GiD process and move them from this master GiD, to visually compare models:
New tool: View->Explode…
Pre-process:
DXF import enhanced.
Fixed bug intersecting curves that belong to Coons surfaces.
Selection with syntax plane:a,b,c,d,tolerance now based on centre, to allow all kind of entities, not only point or node.
Snap geometry to plane window (e.g. to force noisy entities near a symmetry plane or in topography to a z plane):
Unv export enhanced to write groups instead layers, and facilitate be read by OpenFoam converter (and fix some bug of UNV importer)
Post-process:
Create result window enhanced (more simple GUI, fixed bugs and
proc CreateResult::Createto be invoked without GUI).New Delete result window:
Fix bug exporting VTK result because time_step specified as string with 6 decimals was insufficient.
Fixed error in post-process when doing mirror / division / … which causes mesh elements preferences, like line width, stream-lines preferences, etc., to be reset.
Corrected error in post-process when mirroring nodal stress results.
Fixed a crash in post-process mirror when the results cache is enabled.
Internal refactoring replacing a in-house old class by std::string.
Fixed several bugs and crashes due to refactoring.
Added support for several simulation results inside same gid project. They should be inside the ‘Simulations’ Folder:
Note: this feature is hidden for GiD 18.0.x official, can reappear in developers...
Customization:
Added tcl3dogl package: an alternative to GiD_OpenGL draw allowing more OpenGL wrapped commands and better syntax
GidUtils::CreateMeshFromSet convert quadrilaterals degenerated (repeating a node) as triangles.
GiD_Result and GiD_Info Postprocess Get results_list: instead <step_value> double value is possible to specify “-index <step_index>” (index from 0).
GiD_Project set disable_draw_set ?<0|1>? to draw or not the model and draw a custom version.
GiD_Tools mesh classify_node_connected_parts ?<element_ids>
GiD_Tools mesh elements_mean_center ?<element_ids>?
GiD_Tools mesh elements_bounding_box ?<element_ids>?
GiD_Raster create {from_raster_cells_to_nodes <raster>} to create a new raster_nodes averaging the values on cell centers to the nodes
CustomLib tree allow use .svg vectorial images, and scale them with better quality
Updated all Tcl related packages to latest versions.
GiD and all packages ready to a future change of Tcl 8.6 by Tcl 9.
