Oasys LS-DYNA Environment
Release Notes
Version 9.4.2
• Case 12623
The shortcut 'Y' has been added to Primer and D3PLOT to cycle through free edge plotting modes.
User interface
• Case 14172
A 'Help' button has been added to the top bar which gives access to:
User manual
What's new (list of files in /manuals/new_features directory)
Support info
About (code version and build date)
In addition the configuration of .pdf and .html browsers has been largely automated, although the
user may still override this by defining an application on Unix and Linux platforms via a preference.
(This is logged for D3PLOT, but has also been applied to PRIMER and T/HIS)
• Case 12385
In version 9.4 the filename for an analysis can be displayed in a graphics window instead of the
model title if required.
The option to control this setting is in the 'Display Options'->'Window Dressing' menu.
• Case 12366
An 'update' button has been added to the ‘Display Options’, and also the 'Overlay' panel (as invoked
from Display > Overlay).
These make it possible to see immediately the effects of any changes.
• Case 12292
A list of keyboard shortcuts can be now be displayed through the top menu Options->List of
shortcuts. It can also be accessed with the '?' key.
• Case 9119
In ‘Utilities >Target markers’, and also ‘Trace nodes’ it was possible to screen-pick multiple nodes
but only to key them in one at a time.
This limitation has been removed and a list of explicit node numbers may now be entered in the 'key
in' box in this context.
(However note that a range of node ids, as in '1 to 20', is not supported. This is because these two
contexts do not necessarily have a unique 'parent' model, making processing ranges of node ids
problematical.)
Views
• Case 13861
Views can now be selected by name as well as number in the /VIEW dialogue commands.
• Case 13746
A new 'Target & Eye' option has been added under the Viewing menu that allows the user to set the
camera position (eye) and the target point at which the camera is pointing.
