Released on: November 10, 2023
SysML Plugin 2024x introduces several improvements to Item Flow creation and editing. The Create / Edit Item Flow dialog now provides greater clarity and usability, providing a more focused approach to reviewing Activity Pairs connected with existing Activity Edges. In addition, Autowire Parts and Delegate Port(s) commands' availability is changed in the SysML Internal Block Diagram and the SysML Parametric Diagram. Also, the Delegate Port(s) command functionality regarding nested ports is now improved to treat each displayed nested port individually.

The 2024x release introduces general modeling and infrastructure, as well as collaborative modeling enhancements.
For general modeling and infrastructure, this release presents the DSLS licensing option, the ability to zoom the Modeling Browser using keyboard shortcuts, and additional Legend adornment properties in Tables. Additionally, OpenJDK is now updated to version 17.0.8+7, CentOS Linux 7 is now replaced with Oracle Linux 8.8 support, and the JavaScript Rhino engine is now upgraded from 1.7R4 to the 1.7.13 version.
Several features have been discontinued with the 2024x version, such as the JavaScript Nashorn language usage, Record Macro functionality, and the SPEM plugin.
We have exciting news for collaborative modeling, as well. The new file exchange format .szip is now out of technology preview and was improved with a UI dialog for ease of use. Also, we introduce a major new feature: the Model Patch mechanism, a significantly lighter solution to move project changes. There are enhancements for 3DEXPERIENCE projects, too; you can now manage used projects more easily and open certain projects in a read-only mode.

SysML Features
Improved Item Flow Creation and Editing
SysML Plugin 2024x brings a more focused approach to reviewing Activity Pairs connected with existing Activity Edges in the Create / Edit Item Flow dialog, improving overall usability and clarity.
- Now, the second step centers exclusively on reviewing existing Activity Pairs connected by existing Activity Edges, thus:
- New Activity Pairs cannot be created, and existing Activity Pairs cannot be edited. Because of this, the tool will no longer initiate the automatic generation of new elements or diagrams.
- The overall synchronization of the dialog's steps is now improved to ensure that all relevant Activity Pairs are systematically gathered based on specified preferences. This results in a well-organized diagram list in the third step, accurately representing selected options.

Other Improvements
- The Tools option group containing Autowire Parts and Delegate Port(s) commands has been removed from the SysML Parametric Diagram toolbar. Both Delegate Port(s) and Autowire Parts commands are no longer available for Constraint Properties and Constraint Parameters in the SysML Internal Block Diagram and the SysML Parametric Diagram.
- Improved Delegate Port(s) command functionality regarding nested ports. Now if the command is called from a part or a port enclosing a nested ports structure, each displayed nested port is treated individually to create delegated connectors and ports. Learn more about automatic delegation >>
