During the last couple of weeks I've noticed that a few of my explicit jobs does not terminate properly on Windows 7. This forces me to manually terminate the processes (which does not take up any extra tokens luckily) but they do consume precious memory. The cause is a bug in the Windows MPI library [...]
Will IoT have influences on your business? Do you see all advantages and possibilities or do you think your business is immune to coming changes? In this article we will raise some questions and hopefully give you some input on how you can utilize already installed software. […]
I will show you how to set the axis labels and legends to 24pt, and the axis labels (Energy / Time) to 18pt as new default options using “Save Display Options” and with Python. Both methods can be used to customize other settings such as background color (I prefer a solid white background), the averaging threshold etc. […]
Recently, we received a question from a customer regarding downgrading of Catia files in V5 and 3DExperience, so if you have struggled too, keep on reading. […]
Since December 2016 the cloud users have access to the new 3DExperience 2017X release! This article deals about 10 major updates that have been released for CATIA and ENOVIA 3DExperience on Cloud. By reading this 10-points list you will see a modern user interface, the new visualization capabilities on the rich client and brand-new PLM functionalities in the Cloud Platform. […]
In this part we will mainly focus on data management on the platform using different roles and collaborative spaces using the intuitive and unified user interface. […]
By popular demand we will introduce you to the idea behind the 3DExperience Platform designed by Dassault Systèmes. We will shed some light on concepts such as “On-Cloud”/“On-Premise” and “Web interface”/”Rich Client” which directly relates to practical usage. […]

Today, many boat’ hulls that are designed from different CAD software contain connectivity errors, such as holes, gaps, overlaps, bumps, patch singularities, tangency defect, etc. These problems disallow the “offsetability” of the hull’s surface. This article will show you how it is possible to use reverse engineering tool to transform a tesselated surface into a proper surface. It is also suitable for STL and Scan model. […]
One of our customer runs CFD Analysis on Boats. The software is using provides STL outputs. A STL model is a lightweight representation that only contains triangles. It is mainly used for 3D printing and also by some 3Dviewer. Our customer contacted us because he needed to transform his scan into a surface. This article will explain you how we can transform a scan into a surface using automatic feature in CATIA. […]
