Many of our clients have been asking about EnSight's ability to load multiple models at the same time so we created a tutorial to help you with this task.  Click here to view the tutorial.

As you all know, CEI just released a new version of EnSight last month, version 8.2.  If you were unsure whether or not you wanted to upgrade, take a look at one of our newest features, texture mapping, which allows you to read and apply 2D textures to any part.

The color dialog in Part mode now has a button "Edit texture...." which brings up a dialog that allows you to read and apply 2D textures to any part.  Many options are available. Texture images are available from many places on the Internet, for example, http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/~pbourke/texture/.

Images above show dataset before texture mapping, the dataset below shows image after texture mapping.
Image of flame after adding texture mapping, notice the rust stained brown metal texture and the use of transparency in the scalar field of methane concentration used to recreate a realistic looking combustion flame.

Crash visualization emphasizing deformation by applying opacity and color variation using alpha channel texture mapping.

To use textures simply select "Edit texture ..." from the part color dialog.		Selecting "Edit Texture.." will bring up the texture dialog, this includes 8 texture palettes from which to access frequently used textures.
