================== ==================== 
*Format*           *Updated Version*
================== ====================
Inventor           2025
CATIA V5           2024
3DXML              2024
================== ====================

See :doc:`/start/supported-formats` for the list of all supported formats.

Regarding CATIA V5 update: Several new types of roughness-markups were added in CATIA 2024. Their support is currently limited in HOOPS Exchange: the markup graphic symbol might be replaced with one with the same significance (type, contact, mode).

New Features
============

Physical Material Properties Support
------------------------------------

Our support for reading **physical material properties** from Creo files has been improved.
We are now supporting Poisson Ratio, SpecificHeat, ThermalConductivity, ThermalExpansion, YieldStrength, YoungModulus for isotropic materials.
However, for Creo files whose active unit system is user-made, these properties are not retrieved.
