35. Model Check The 1D, 2D and 3D check functions are reorganized. More criteria are provided for 3D element check.

36. Connection A new connection toolbar instead of spotweld toolbar. New Feature in this toolbar:  The spotweld generation speed are significantly improved.

37. Connection- create  Supports MAT100 spotwelds in solid elements, 4/8/12/16 Hexahedron elements can be created.  Support adhesive type of connections

38. Num of layer Link part ID Connection- connector The connector include weld points and glue area, the operations has:  Can be listed and edited by Connected List;  Can be retrieved from spotweld.

39. Enhance Selection Method - by Spread Spread for selection is used in conjunction with selecting. When spread angle is X(X>0),the visible nodes on the faces which normal angle is less then X will be all selected.
