​​​​​​​This is an update to replace the "Generate Display Groups from Sets" plugin for ABAQUS/CAE that was submitted a while ago. 

Description of updates: 

- The plugin has been extended to allow the user to generate display groups from Surfaces as well, not just Sets. 
- The registration command has been changed so that the plugin conforms to the recommended menu structure for categorizing plugins. 

This plug-in allows users to automatically generate Display Groups from all sets and surfaces contained in a Model. The user can choose create Display Groups from any combination of Part, Instance or Assembly sets or surfaces. 

Usage: Plug-ins->Tools->Display Groups->Generate... 

Note: This plugin is only for /CAE and not for /Viewer
