Altair HyperGraph 2023 Release Notes
General
New Features and Enhancements
- Qt-based Build Plots dialog.
- Implemented multiple subcase support in the Seam reader.

The number of dots represents the number of pick targets in a tool, including some that are hidden until hovering over the tool.

Known Issues
- To show the Extension loaded in different profiles even when no GUI access
points like ribbons, toolbars or menus are available requires that each
profile is loaded with at least one entry. The example below shows the empty HyperMesh and HyperView profiles with the (dummy) entry resources. This entry will not be required in future versions to show the extension loaded in these profiles.
