3D InterOp now offers full support for NX Model Views, allowing applications to offer users the same logical groups available in the originating system. For applications that already processed Capture information available from 3DInterOP (e.g., CATIA files), this functionality is now available with NX data, requiring no additional programming.
To help automate the re-import process, 3D InterOp now supports translation of CAD system persistent naming information. Persistent naming provides a mechanism for applications to be able to identify what has changed when reimporting a CAD file after it has been modified externally. This capability is fully supported for all CAD formats.
A number of new file formats are now available to extend the range of files that end users can access, including MicroStation DGN reader, 3MF for additive manufacturing applications, plus SOLIDWORKS and CATIA 2D drawing reader for viewing CAD drawings.
