HyperWorks Desktop Application Unit Draw

A summary of the HyperWorks Units (HWUs) drawn by application license feature name.

When actually querying the license server, it will display 1000 times the number shown in the table for each Feature Name. Also note that, feature names in the license file have been cleaned up and will typically be the name listed below, prefixed with HW. For example, HyperMesh is HWHyperMesh, or Radioss is HWRadioss.

HyperWorks Desktop includes several applications. The number of HyperWorks Units (HWUs) drawn by each application varies. The Altair License Manager remembers the highest watermark for an instance of HyperWorks Desktop. For example, if HyperGraph is launched, first (6 HWUs), and then an HyperView window is added to the same session, the number of HWU increases from 6 to 21. If you then switch back to the HyperGraph window (with or without closing the HyperView window), the total unit count remains at 21 HWUs.
