The Winter Release includes several new additions to the powerful visualization product; an option to add CAD file importers to access native CAD files without the use of the original CAD system, a new FLUENT direct interface, and the introduction of Chameleon Mode, a technique to modify the graphical user interface (GUI) to suit each user’s specific needs.

The new FLUENT direct data reader improves the speed, robustness, and capability of the previous reader. With the new FLUENT beta reader we have added faster data loading; SOS support for large models and distributed computations; and convenience specifically related to quickly uncompressing zipped files, availability of a list of variables for parts, and the ability to load a single part.

Chameleon Mode allows users of EnSight to develop their own GUI with the ability to switch from the standard EnSight GUI to a custom GUI directly within EnSight.

“We've added dozens of new features to EnSight, this is the most significant update to EnSight in over a year. We can't wait to get this version into the hands of our customers.” said Darin McKinnis, CEI’s vice president of sales and marketing.”
