| New and enhanced Features of XVL Studio ver 9.1. |
| Features |
Benefits |
|
Windows 7 platform now supported |
Support available for the latest Windows operating systems. |
 |
| Process Design Updates |
|
|
Optimization of Process Animations |
Smaller file size makes opening, sharing and creating large assembly process animations easier and faster. |
|
Animation of tools and equipment: Now available within a process animation |
Accurately check movement and collision/interference as tools and equipment are involved in a process. |

Multiple process items can now be edited simultaneously |
Save time and increase efficiency by editing groups of process items. |
|
Duplicate parts checking in a process tree is now automated |
XVL Studio automatically detects and checks duplicate parts in the process tree so they can be visually compared and approved. |
|
Illustration and Parts List Creation |
|
|
Disassembly Parts List creation:
sBOMs can now be created based on the disassembly tree |
Faster and more accurate creation of sBOMs plus additional editing tools for greater productivity |
|
Trace lines follow part movement: When a part position is changed, relevant trace lines will move with the part. |
Feature delivers faster and clearer editing of an illustration to lead to greater productivity. |

2D illustrations can now be created based on the 3D view with full control of settings |
2D illustrations are quickly created to desired specifications directly from 3D view. |
|
CSV import and export available directly from edit panel |
Faster, clearer import of .CSV information assists in faster creation of accurate illustrations from several data sources. |
|
| Digital Mock Up Enhancements |
|
|
Draft angle detection now available |
Enhanced feature allows for draft angles to be rapidly detected, highlighted and checked for manufacturability. |

Color bar display enhancements: Include the ability to import a user-defined color bar and to custom define tolerances for color bar display when checking differences in 3D data. |
Enhanced features allow for faster comprehension, more flexile display of information during comparisons of 3D data. |
|
| Measurement & Cross-sectioning |
|
|
Improved measurement navigation:This includes continuous navigation and measurement across elements, continuous measurement from a user coordinate system and various points, and saving of base coordinate systems in a property. |
Enhanced features enable rapid measurement of elements in a 3D model, increasing accuracy and saving time. |

Measurement of a real-time cross-sections: Measurements in a cross section can now be taken in real time, instead of saved profiles. |
Increase accuracy yet save time by being able to change the position of the cutting plane and take measurements without pause. |
