This is a bugfix release made by back porting applicable fixes from the 3.45.X branch. Update to this version if you can’t update to 3.45.X for some reason. That said, 3.45.X has been going very well and I do not anticipate keeping this 3.44.X branch active for long.

Although a bugfix release, a couple small features squeezed their way in to help smooth some of the rough edges in the big new features introduced in 3.44.0.

The new Geometry Analysis feature gained an online help page to help explain the input requirements for each analysis. The analyses also received some error checking to notify the user when those requirements are not met.

The most visible change in this version will be the layout of the main OpenVSP screen. Over the years, screens have gotten bigger and wider — and while most have landscape orientation, some are portrait. The default size of the main screen has been increased to better take advantage of the screen.

Features:

• Geometry Analysis Online Help
• Error handling for Geometry Analysis
• Adjust Main Screen sizing
