Tecplot Focus 2020 R2 (2020.1.0.110596)

The Tecplot development team is pleased to announce the availability of Focus 2020 R2 (2020.1.0.110596) is a powerful tool for visualizing a wide range of technical data. It offers line plotting, 2D and 3D surface plots in a variety of formats, and 3D volumetric visualization.

Tecplot Focus 2020 R2 - Release Date: December 9, 2020

- Ability to split a zone into distinct connected regions – A command has been added to the macro language to create new zones from isolated regions in one or more finite element zones.

PyTecplot: tecplot.data.extract.extract_connected_regions()
Macro: $!ExtractConnectedRegions

- Reference variables by name – Tecplot Focus can now save variables by name in macros, layouts, and stylesheets and use names when loading data and retaining the existing style. This capability must be turned on in the tecplot.cfg file. See:

$!Compatibility UseNamesForVariableAssignments = YES

Setting this to “YES” will instruct Tecplot Focus to save variable references by name instead of number. Note that if you have duplicate variable names or variable aliases Tecplot Focus will pick the first variable matching that name.

Bug Fixes and Minor Enhancements
- Edges are now drawn correctly for physically collapsed cells.
- Fixed issue with some dialogs on Windows would not close using the Close icon at the upper right of the dialog.
- Fixed issue in TecIO-MPI where .szplt output file corruption occasionally happened using certain versions of OpenMPI (issue was observed with OpenMPI 3.1.5 and may have affected newer versions as well).


Tecplot Focus is engineering plotting software with extensive XY, 2D and 3D capabilities. It is designed more for measured field data, performance plotting of test data, mathematical analysis, and engineering plotting in general. Tecplot Focus is based on Tecplot 360 EX, Tecplot's flagship visualization product, and has much of the same power. One of the key differentiators between Tecplot Focus and Tecplot 360 is that Tecplot Focus does not support CFD data formats, CFD analysis, and transient data.
