Bug fix release Animator4 v1.1.4

GNS has released a bug fix version of Animator4. Some bugs are fixed and some small functionality is added.

GUI:

• split list of system-variables into system (A4) and environment variables
• implement dragging of curve-positions in curveview
• all function properties in the open dialog are now also generally saved so that modified values (i.e.range, degrees) that were used last are also available for files that are not in the history.
• Tcl-API extensions: GNS_get_distance, GNS_get_elongation, GNS_get_relative_velocity, GNS_get_view_list, GNS_get_slot_list, GNS_get_state_list, GNS_get_button_list, GNS_get_curve_list, GNS_get_curve_list, GNS_get_pid_list and GNS_get_curve_list
• made windows batch version run without any GUI (e.g via ssh)
• fixed ticket #2009042310000254: -D startup arg reads only geometry
• changing slot target after creating new slot and before starting autoload, so that the user can setup a second read command while autoload is in process
• enhance quality of grid fonts by antialiasing (opt ant on/off)
• Using "DontMaximizeSubWindowOnActivation" in workspace area. This allows user to mix maximized views with normalized views even in tabbed mode. Also, windows are not maximized automatically when the tabbed mode is enabled. The flag suppresses some work that otherwise is automatically done by Qt (and perhaps is unwanted by the user).
• Implemented entering wildcards in the lineedit of the file dialogs. This filters the display of files and directories.

 

 

InputInterfaces

• Abaqus:
  • added support for v6.9.1
• Dyna3D:
  • extended curve data support: abstat cpm, glstat, rbdout, sleout, dcfail data amount extended
• Pamcrash:
  • continuing reading pamcrash deck even if an include file is missing
  • include file handling refactored, now include files are read as soon as the keyword INCLU is met.
