Context Menus
Context menus are floating menus that are accessed by right-clicking on elements in the user interface. They provides immediate access to a short list of commands that are contextually relevant to the selection.
View new features for HyperWorks 2022.3.
Learn the basics and discover the workspace.
Explore the HyperWorks user interface.
The title bar displays the name of the file that is currently opened, along with the active product and user profile.
The main display area of the user interface is called a page. Each page can contain up to 16 windows.
The ribbon allows you to quickly access tools and standard functions, and is located along the top of HyperWorks. Click on an icon to open the related tool. Hovering over a group of icons may reveal additional tools.
The modeling window is where your model is displayed.
The status bar displays information pertaining to the currently loaded model, active tools and panels, current collectors, and snap filter options.
Use the toolbelt to quickly access frequently used tools in HyperWorks.

Guide bars guide you through a series of commands, required inputs, and options necessary to complete a workflow that is specific to a tool.
The Tcl Console enables you to enter and execute Tcl/Tk commands instead of using the user interface.
The HWC Console, with the command line, supports auto-completion and interactive help and allows easy modification and re-execution of commands.
The Message Log lists the actions performed in the current session. The dialog also provides you with information about your file (warnings, errors, and so on).
Command files can be used to create new command scripts that perform automation, or to recover previously performed steps.
Certain parts of the user interface, such as browsers, toolbars, and panels, can be undocked and repositioned as needed.
View controls enable you to control the view and display of your model in the modeling window.
Quickly find and open the tools, panels, and browsers that are available from the ribbons or from the Utility Browser, as well as create entities and solver cards.
Select and deselect entities to modify with other HyperWorks tools. Selected entities are outlined to indicate their selection state.
Translate, rotate, and align the model.
Use the Measure tool to measure length, angles, radii, areas, volumes, centers of gravity, and bounding boxes.
Learn how to manipulate entities in HyperWorks.
Undo and redo actions performed in HyperWorks.
Default keyboard shortcuts and mouse controls.
Discover HyperWorks functionality with interactive tutorials.
Start HyperWorks and configure the applications.
View a list of deprecated HyperWorks panels and their newer, equivalent workflows.
Create, open, import, and save models.
Set up sessions and create report templates.
Solver interfaces supported in HyperWorks.
A solver interface is made up of a template and a FE-input reader.
Browsers supply a great deal of view-related functionality by listing the parts of a model in a tabular and/or tree-based format, and providing controls inside the table that allow you to alter the display of model parts.
Create and edit 2D parametric sketch geometry.
Create, edit, and cleanup geometry.
FE geometry is topology on top of mesh, meaning CAD and mesh exist as a single entity. The purpose of FE geometry is to add vertices, edges, surfaces, and solids on FE models which have no CAD geometry.
Different types of mesh you can create in HyperWorks.
Create and edit 0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D elements.
Create, organize and manage parts and subsystems.
HyperMesh composites modeling.
Create connections between parts of your model.
Rapidly change the shape of the FE mesh without severely sacrificing the mesh quality.
Create a reduced ordered model to facilitate optimization at the concept phase.
Workflow to support topology optimization model build and setup.
Setup an Optimization in HyperWorks.
Multi-disciplinary design exploration and optimization tools.
Validate the model built before running solver analysis.
Models require loads and boundary conditions in order to represent the various physics and/or physical equivalents to bench and in-use testing.
Reduce a full 3D model with axisymmetric surfaces while accounting for imperfections.
Tools and workflows that are dedicated to rapidly creating new parts for specific use cases, or amending existing parts. The current capabilities are focused on stiffening parts.
Tools used for crash and safety analysis.
Airbag solutions offer airbag folder utilities and exports a resulting airbag in a Radioss deck.
Essential utility tools developed using HyperWorks-Tcl.
Import an aeroelastic finite element model with Nastran Bulk Data format.
Framework to plug certification methods to assess margin of safety from the model and result information.
Create evaluation lines, evaluate them, and optimize the interfaces to eliminate squeak and rattle issues.
Panels contains pre-processing and post-processing tools.
Results data can be post-processed using both HyperMesh and HyperView.
HyperGraph is a data analysis and plotting tool with interfaces to many file formats.
MotionView is a general pre-processor for Multibody Dynamics.
MediaView plays video files, displays static images, tracks objects, and measures distances.
TableView creates an Excel-like spreadsheet in HyperWorks.
TextView math scripts reference vector data from HyperGraph windows to automate data processing and data summary.
Create, define, and export reports.
