SPAIDocumentHeaderInfo Performance Optimization
- Improvements on Inventor Component for HeaderInfo Query
- The Inventor component has been optimized so that only necessary and sufficient information is extracted when queried for GetHeaderInfo of the SPAIDocumentHeaderInfo class. Refer to Header Information for more details.
- Improvements on Pro/E Component for HeaderInfo Query
- The Pro/E component has been optimized so that only necessary and sufficient information is extracted when queried for GetHeaderInfo of the SPAIDocumentHeaderInfo class. Refer to Header Information for more details.
- Optimized Unigraphics Component for HeaderInfo Query
- The Unigraphics component has been optimized so that only necessary and sufficient information is extracted when queried for GetHeaderInfo of the SPAIDocumentHeaderInfo class. Refer to Header Information for more details.
ACIS Reader/Writer Component

- Monolithic ACIS assembly is supported. InterOp ACIS Reader and Writer support ASAT and ASAB file formats of ACIS Assembly. Refer to Assembly for more details.
CATIA V5 Reader Component
- Support for CATIA V5 Flag Note
- InterOp Connect supports the Flag Note annotation type in a CATIA V5 file.
HSF Writer Component
- Support for HSF Version 15
- InterOp Connect supports translation of HSF version 15 files.

Pro/E Reader Component
- Support for Pro/E PMI Display Information
- InterOp Connect supports translation of Pro/E PMI display information with certain limitations. Refer to PMI Data for more details.
SolidWorks Reader Component
- Support for Translation from SolidWorks to Generic
- InterOp Connect supports translation from SolidWorks to Generic.
- Support for Reading SolidWorks Assembly Files when Instance Files Are Located in Sub-folders
- InterOp Connect supports reading assemblies when instance files are located in sub-folders. Instance files are to be located in the same relative directories as created.

STEP Reader/Writer Component
- Writing COMPOSITE_CURVE_SEGMENT as per AP203/214 schema
- COMPOSITE_CURVE_SEGMENT is written as per AP203/214 schema. Prior to R19 GA, InterOp used to write a null string as the first field of the COMPOSITE_CURVE_SEGMENT item as shown below:
- Wrong format:
- #94 = COMPOSITE_CURVE_SEGMENT( ' ', .CONTINUOUS., .T., #126 );
- Correct format:
- #94 = COMPOSITE_CURVE_SEGMENT( .CONTINUOUS., .T., #126 );
- COMPOSITE_CURVE_SEGMENT should have only three fields. However, InterOp has taken care of reading the STEP files written by earlier versions which contained the wrong format.
Connect SDK
- CATIA V5 Standards and PMI Associative Entities
- The SPAXPMIExporter class exposes new methods to retrieve the annotation standard's and the associative annotation of an annotation.
