: A new 64-bit viewer allows for the clear visualization of surface loads on 2D members using "diverging" color maps to distinguish between load intensity and sign (positive/negative). Improved Input Operations scia engineer 22
Parametric input functionality enables engineers to use parameters across their models, making design changes and optimisations dramatically easier. Filtering in Input Tables and Table Results with expressions like <, >, >=, <=, = allows for sophisticated data management. Simultaneous editing of multiple cell values in one step, including numerical operations, rounding, and search/replace functionality, streamlines batch modifications. | Feature | SCIA Engineer 22 | Autodesk
