3DEXPERIENCE R2022x upgrade on 4th December (Mandatory read)

In this wiki post, you will discover the new and exciting enhancements that are coming in the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform R2022x.

Check out the various sections below to learn more about the enhancements. You can also click on the Anchor icon button on the top-right side of the page near the page views icon, to visit any section you want.

Social/Web apps

3DDashboard

A dashboard is now ‘Platform Aware’

In R2021x, 3DDashboard was ‘Platform Agnostic’ (one single url, possibility to share a dashboard with all users from Platforms I’m member of,…).
This led to some complexity and was misleading in some cases for the users.

Now, in R2022x, every dashboard is created and managed in one platform!

=> same behavior than Standalone Web apps.

But the key value remains : widgets from several Platforms can still be instantiated on one dashboard

Dashboard will now be associated to 1 platform
List of dashboards will be displayed in context of the current platform
All others services (except 3DCompass) will also behave in context of the current platform
‘Search user’ (when sharing or inviting)
Apps in TopBar
‘Search content’
Ability to switch to another platform directly from the Topbar

3DSWYM

Whiteboard as a media option

You can now create a Whiteboard to contribute to the collaborative ideation and innovation of your communities.

3DPlay

New ability to explore engineering objects in relation

You can now easily visualize and navigate through the objects in relations, directly from within 3DPlay. Just drag & drop from the relation tab of the side panel into 3DPlay main window. Great for visualizing large assemblies!

3DStory

Do your Powerpoint like presentation with a most impactful possibilities (integrate your 3DModels, insert youtube videos etc.). It will help you to pitch your capstone project to your teachers with this App!

With R2022x Golden, 3DStory brings you the following great new features:

Create even more stunning Stories with the new Animations Library

Hundreds of millions of videos at your fingertips with the new YouTube integration

Collaborative Lifecycle

Reserve and Unreserve Commands Renamed
The Reserve and Unreserve commands have been renamed Lock and Unlock. The different elements have also been updated to reflect this change (for example, properties or column headers).

Benefits: The name and purpose of the commands are clearer.

Change Maturity Command Renamed
The Change Maturity command has been renamed Maturity in the action bar and context menu. This name is also used in properties, and column headers of the Revision Explorer.

Benefits: The same name is now used for the command and the properties

xApps (xDesign, xShape etc.)

xDesign

Save time creating detailed designs with the new Thread command
Save time and validate assembly mechanisms from the top level, with new Flexible Sub-assemblies
