# HOOPS Exchange 2026.6.0

## Technology Updates

### Format Updates

Format | Updated Version
--- | ---
Creo | 13.4.0.0
JT | 10.11

See File Formats for the list of all supported formats.

### Platform Changes

The Linux x86_64 binaries now require at most the GLIBCXX_3.4.25 symbol from libstdc++ (down from GLIBCXX_3.4.28). This improves compatibility with older Linux distributions, allowing HOOPS Exchange to run out of the box on systems such as RHEL 8 without requiring any additional workarounds.

## New Features

### New Format

Format | Version
--- | ---
QIF | 3.0

- QIF Reader Support: With the ongoing development of the QIF format reader, HOOPS Exchange 2026.6.0 now provides a beta version of the QIF reader. As a beta release, the QIF Reader has some limitations. For a detailed list of current limitations, please refer to the QIF Reader documentation page.

### Feature Requests

- Improved Creo Assembly Fidelity: Assemblies using Creo’s Pro/PROGRAM feature to suppress components now render accurately, matching the original design intent. Programmatically driven component states are faithfully preserved during import and visualization.
- SolidWorks Construction Geometry Support: HOOPS Exchange now fully extracts SolidWorks “For construction” geometry elements, including lines and circles.

## API Changes

These symbols have been deprecated since release 2026.4.0 and are now removed.

- `kA3DWebOutFormatScs`
- `kA3DModellerScs`
- `A3DAsmModelFileExportToSCSFile`
- `A3DRWParamsExportScsData`
