CFD in v.1.6.9.002?

Hi DesignBuilder,

I am trying to use your very promising software to analyse windflow around a potential project, but I am having real trouble getting to the CFD module of the demo.

I spoke to a member of your team on Tuesday and discussed CFD modelling and our aims and was told that beta version 1.7 would be out later this week. I saw and downloaded v.1.6.9.002 which, from the licensing dialogue, suggests that CFD is enabled in it, but even when I load the 'External CFD Tutorial' template, I cannot figure out how to get CFD working. Do I need to wait until 1.7 proper, or is it in 1.6.9 and I'm just missing how to start it...?

Hi htee,

We're just finishing off the DesignBuilder v.1.7 beta that will include CFD. Final testing should be done today and all being well the release should be tomorrow. Sorry about the delays but we need to ensure that the software is working well before releasing it!
