What's New in 2024.12
Grid Import Performance
ResInsight now offers the option to import geometry exclusively for active cells. This feature is particularly beneficial for large grids where active cells constitute only a small fraction of the total, significantly reducing memory usage. This optimization ensures efficient handling of large models while maintaining full functionality for active cells.
Quick Access View
For large projects with numerous views and grid models, navigating to specific information can sometimes be time-consuming. To address this, we’ve introduced a dedicated dialog called Quick Access. This dialog displays selected information from a view, making it easier to find what you need efficiently.
By default, the Quick Access dialog is located to the right of the 3D views.
Cloud Services
When accessing cloud services, an authentication token is saved to a file in your home folder. Occasionally, this token may become invalid, leading to a failure in establishing a cloud connection. If this occurs, you can resolve the issue by using the Delete Token button in the Preferences menu. Once the token is deleted, the authentication dialog will appear the next time you attempt to access cloud services, and a new token will be generated automatically.
Framework Updates
Qt has been upgraded from version 5 to version 6, bringing significant changes that impact several aspects of ResInsight, particularly its application engine. This update affects certain visual features of the user interface:
- The font system has been modernized, which may result in subtle differences in font appearance and size on some systems.
- Default spacing between interface elements has been slightly increased to improve layout consistency.
Additionally, the build instructions have been updated to align with Qt 6. Building with Qt 5 is no longer supported.
