Hanger analysis is modified so that cold loads are used whether hanger stiffness is included or not included. Previously cold loads were used when hanger stiffness was included and hot loads were used when hanger stiffness was not included. Note that this change affects only when the option to exclude hanger stiffness is used and user hanger load is hot load and hanger stiffness is comparable to the piping system stiffness (i.e.) the piping system is very flexible.
Limit stops with connected nodes are now rendered.
For limit stops, local coordinate system is now shown (presently without connected nodes).
Ball joints and hinge joints connected to beams are now rendered.
OpenGL rendering is again available for 256 color graphics cards.
