User interface and workflow enhancements for 2026.0.1
A great deal of effort goes into improving the user interface and workflow for each release, based on feedback from you, our customers.
Each year we send out surveys, release beta builds and encourage you to tell us about your experience so we can make it more enjoyable. We encourage you to let us know, via social media, product forums, surveys, or support, how we can help make your experience even better.
Python API
A new open source Python package now provides direct access to Moldflow’s APIs, making it easier to automate and extend Moldflow workflows using Python. This package is available on GitHub and is fully documented at autodesk.github.io/moldflow-api.
Key highlights:
- Python Interface: Interact with Moldflow’s core functionality using Python, with a more intuitive and scriptable API.
- Macro Recording in Python: Macros are now recorded and played as Python scripts, replacing the legacy VBScript approach.
- Comprehensive Documentation: The API reference with examples are available to help you get started quickly.
Speed improvement for 3D Mesh Editing
The performance of 3D mesh editing operations such as node deletion and merging nodes has been improved.
Scripts to emulate legacy behaviours of the Moldflow user interface (Mfview) are no longer provided
As this software has not been commercially available for over twenty years, the command-based scripts that mapped behaviours in the Mfview application into equivalent Synergy commands are no longer supported.
The following scripts have been removed:
- align.vbs
- deln.vbs
- delp.vbs
- dm.vbs
- dr.vbs
- dt.vbs
- edth.vbs
- for.vbs
- hcp.vbs
- ma.vbs
- merge.vbs
- mes.vbs
- mor.vbs
- no.vbs
- po.vbs
- so.vbs
CAD supported platform updates
The following CAD file formats are also supported.
- Alias 2026
- Parasolid® V37
- SOLIDWORKS 2025
- JT 10.10
- NX 2406 Series
Export of additional results in the Scalaris Zip (SDZ) format
The following results are now included in SDZ exports:
- Any supported result generated by a Thermoplastics Microcellular Injection Molding analysis, including some additional bubble results.
- 3D weld line results.
- Fiber length and fiber concentration results.
Refer to Export to SDZ for more details.
