• Browser still shows all components set to "Steel, Alloy" but all components have "Copper, Alloy" override in Material Overrides dialog
• Isn't possible to re-submit running job in case that four jobs are running
• Remove extraneous messages from the Study log file
• Solver improvements
• Log-in issues
• Compare view arrangement issues
• Simulus crash when creating a new simulation study using an existing share sim. model
• Missing pill command/HUD for LSS-loads after double-click to the glyph
• Only one component highlighted in the scene for material overrides and components are not categorized by material type
• Broken video links
• Post processing performance improvements

Please continue to experiment with Project Simulus and share your feedback with labs.iv.simulus@autodesk.com. Thanks so much for putting this technology preview through its paces.

Incremental improvement is alive in the lab.
