Introduction

This page is a working draft of the changes/modifications planned for this version. It is made publicly available to customers for input and feedback.


Comments, Questions or Feedback

You can use the new Synthesis sub-forum in the Reliability Discussion Forum for comments, questions, suggestions and/or feedback related to the planned modifications.

Alternatively, you can send an e-mail to the Development team.

Platform-Wide Modifications

These platform modifications are incorporated into all applications.

UI Changes Not Affecting Functionality

  1. UDFs for folios also changed to be a tree structure.
  2. Model window interface updated to use a tree structure similar to other resources.
  3. Interface improvements for Resource Manager:
    1. "Show All," "Show Only Unused" and "Show Only Duplicates" now indicate which option is selected.
    2. A status bar at the bottom of the window indicates which resource is selected, the Local/Global view option and the Selection option.


New Resources

  1. Metric. Shows calculated results value from a model or simulation result. Result values can be manually added to a stack of saved values and tracked over time. [NEW] [IP]

Application-Specific Modifications

All platform modifications are reflected and added to each individual application.
Additionally, this section presents specific major modifications that apply (are unique) to an individual application.
