Accelerated Graphics transitions from Tech Preview status to a fully supported capability.
Following continued performance improvements, expanded visual support, enhanced linked model handling, and improved 3D workflows, Accelerated Graphics is now production-ready for modeling and navigation tasks.
All Tech Preview language has been removed from the user interface. The workflow to enter and use Accelerated Graphics mode remains unchanged.
Accelerated Graphics is recommended for modeling and navigation workflows. Some view documentation capabilities and visual effects may not be supported in this mode.
