Envision for Web Envision for Desktop

## New Features

### CAE-531 Add support for WebGL 2 to Envision Web

Envision Web is now using WebGL2 as the default renderer. This should not affect any current usage but will open up for new features in the coming versions.

It will fall back to WebGL1 if WebGL2 is not supported. You can force WebGL1 with `ViewerOptions.forceWebGL1 = true`.

### CAE-741 Add missing part and element info to queries

Added information about area and volume to HitItem and Element and Geometry queries.

- Added `cee.ug.HitItem.elementArea` with the area of the hit element.
- Added `cee.ug.QueryElementInfoData.elementArea` returned by `cee.ug.QueryElementInfo`.
- Added `cee.ug.QueryGeometryStatisticsData.totalVolume` and `totalArea` returned by the `cee.ug.QueryGeometryStatistics`.

### CAE-1131 Added part setting to disable feature extraction for that part

Added a new part setting for disabling computation of feature extractions (cutting plane, isosurfaces, isovolumes, particle tracing). If set to true, there will be no feature extraction computed for the given part.

See `cee.ug.PartSettings.disableFeatureExtraction` and `cee::ug::PartSettings::disableFeatureExtraction()` for more information.

### CAE-1177 Added coloring of elements based on set, element type and user property

You can now specify how to color a part if not results are shown. This is done with the `cee.ug.ModelSettings.modelColorSource` or `cee::ug::ModelSettings::setModelColorSource()` setting.

Legal values are Part (default), Set, Element Type, User Property with index 0..2.

### CAE-1187 Added documentation about cug in the Envision Web documentation

The documentation for Envision Web cee API overview page now has information about CUG.

### CAE-1191 Added example and documentation on how to use multiple views in Envision Web

Added documentation on how to use multiple views to the View and Viewer API documentation.

Added a new Example (`Examples/MultipleViews`) which showcases how to use multiple views with Envision Web.

### CAE-1195 Support for MacOS ARM64 (M1/M2) for UG Server

Added support for Apple Silicon MacOS ARM64 (used in M1/M2 based Macs) for the UgServer. Use the npm run startMacArm command to start the server on a Mac with M1/M2.

The binaries are in the `server/UgServer/bin/osx_arm64` and `NativeApplications/CugComposer/bin/mac_arm64` folders.

Note: You might get an error saying the `CeeUgServer.node` add-on cannot be opened. If so, go to Privacy and Security and allow it.

## Fixed Bugs

### CAE-1197 initString not passed along while using defaultResultCalculatorDefinitions

When passing along the `defaultResultCalculatorDefinitions` as part of the `OpenModelOptions` to `RemoteModel.openModel()` the init string was not properly propagated to the result calculator.
