Extensions are programs integrated with the application to enhance or extend the user experience.
Altair Binary Format (ABF) is the standard binary format read by the program. A library called abflib allows you to create files in ABF.
A generic ASCII reader is now available which allows you to bring custom results directly into HyperView. The Altair ASCII format is useful for reading the results of any in-house or propriety codes which are saved in a generic format.
Batch mode allows you perform a series of operations outside the program interface.
External resources can be registered in preference files, session files, or Templex files. If an external resource is registered in a program session, it is automatically registered in the session file when the session is saved.
The Python API documentation for HyperMesh applications.
The application's scripting interface is a set of Tcl/Tk commands that follow a simple and consistent syntax.
Translators are utilities that are run from the command line of the operating system to convert various types of files into different formats.
XML commands in the Result Math Module.
Record playback workflows in the application.
Use the Task Manager to load an XML file that defines tasks and their attributes.
Reference to all MDL statements and blocks that can be used to model a mechanical system.
In MotionView, math or string functions can be used in property fields. These functions help in setting the value of the property that could range from simple arithmetic calculations to complex math equations. These functions also help in setting parametric relations to other properties.
MDL command set statements are used to create a solver command file when a solver input deck is exported from MotionView. A command set can contain MDL command set statements, Templex templates, or a combination of both. The commands in a command set are exported to the solver command file.

Adds a selectable system to a system group.
Adds a tab to a tabbed form.
Custom wizards allow you to define data processing wizards for use in MotionView sessions. Custom wizards can access data from, and output data to, files and curves in a session using data sets, templates, user-defined forms, curves, procedures and systems.
MDL variables, implicit entities, and Templex statements that can be used while creating an entity or expressions in MDL models.
Tires are critical elements to modeling a vehicle’s interaction with a road, with some tire models better suited to specific simulation domains.
Overview of the MDL Library reference guide.
The Script and Model Library is a database of freely accessible scripts and models posted by users and Altair engineers.
