In this release, the Behavior-to-Structure Synchronization has undergone further improvements and now allows to completely synchronize the entire structure model with the behavior model. Additionally, the Requirements verification can now be performed directly in the Requirement Table. Moreover, the enhancements for Modelica allow importing Modelica files as well as extending the model generated as a Modelica code, using a Comment element with the «ModelicaExtension» stereotype.
2021x Refresh2 Hot Fix 4 has been released on July 15, 2022, for CATIA Magic and No Magic portfolios. It introduces a number of bug fixes and performance improvements.
The version and Hot Fix number of a modeling tool and its plugins must be the same. After installing the Hot Fix version of a modeling tool, select the same Hot Fix version when downloading its plugins. The modeling tool will not work correctly if you install plugins of a different version and/or Hot Fix number.
The Behavior-to-Structure Synchronization has undergone further improvements to enable you to completely synchronize the entire structure model with the behavior model. First, the set of validation rules has been extended by introducing the brand new validation rules for the detection of missing Connectors and Item Flows. That is not all! You can now automatically build the structure model according to defined Activities and, at the same time, generate an Internal Block Diagram by executing a single-click command.

Checking the consistency of the Internal Block Diagram with Activities and then handling detected inconsistencies using solvers.
The Requirements verification can now be performed directly in the Requirement Table. The analysis is carried out by evaluating whether the value of the property satisfying the Requirement is within a range of lower and upper bounds extracted from the Requirement text. Additionally, the automatically calculated margin value helps to determine how close the system model is to fulfilling Requirements.

In this version, the Modelica import was enhanced. Previously, only Modelica Library import was available. Now you can import the Modelica file (*.mo) content into the single selected Block of your SysML model. During the import, context-specific initial values can be updated or missing classifiers can be created. Furthermore, connector, property, and port changes are also supported.
You can extend the model generated as a Modelica code, using a Comment element with the «ModelicaExtension» stereotype. The Modelica Extension content is exported to the Modelica file together with the model. As a result, the code is generated depending on where the Comment is attached.
The Autowiring command was renamed Autowire Parts. You can find this command in the IBD diagram toolbar, Tools menu.
The Autowire Parts, Delegate Port(s), and Behavior to Structure Synchronization commands have been grouped under Tools in the diagram toolbar.
You can now easily check if the Item Flow realized by the Object Flow is compatible with Pin types in a SysML Activity Diagram.
You can now easily check the sent Signal compatibility with the Proxy Port specified in the On Port property of the Send Signal action or the compatibility of the accepted Signal with the Proxy Port specified in the Port property of the Accept Event action in a SysML Activity Diagram.
