Reference Manager improvements and additions

We've provided access to the file import options for Alias supported files formats, such as CATIA and NX, in the Reference Manager.

The Reference Translation Options provide a subset of the the File Import Options that affect .wref files (or reference data). This means you can control the import options for these non-native files while maintaining the links to the original source files. You can use these options with the Re-Import Files command to retranslate selected references with different import options, which gives you control over how that data is brought into Alias.

For more information, see Work with reference data.

Improved Transparency controls for reference data

You can now adjust the Transparency values of reference surfaces, curves, and meshes individually using new Transparency Control Panel sliders. Access the new controls by expanding the References tab in the Transparency Control Panel.

For more information see Modeling control panel.

Reference object display

Cross sections on reference geometry now remain visible in the viewport after turning off the model wireframe draw (WindowDisplay > Show > Model). This new behavior is consistent with the display of non-reference geometry.
