A 'Gateway' window has been implemented to provide easy access to input data, tabular data and graphical views.
The Pile Toolbar has been implemented to provide easy access to the most frequently used views and commands.

Data files may now be emailed directly from the program's interface via the 'File' menu.
The text output of the results view has been improved. It may now be exported to a range of file formats via the 'File' menu.
Standard sets of units (SI, kN-m, kip-ft and kip-in) may be selected via the Units and Preferences dialog.
So as to help users to ensure that they are running the latest software a new version checking system has been implemented. This compares each executable file installed locally with the set that Oasys identifies as being the 'current' version. (The comparison is carried out locally; no data is transmitted to Oasys.) Executables for which updates are available are highlighted. Updates may then be downloaded from the Program's Downloads page on the Internet. This system enables rapid delivery of bug fixes and, occasionally, minor enhancements.
