\ncreated components to be independent of the workflow itself. This means the components are
\nreusable and distributable among Ansys products including ModelCenter\u00ae Desktop, ModelCenter\u00ae
\nRemote Execution, and ModelCenter\u00ae Cloud. The ModelCenter\u00ae Component Plug-Ins now offer more
\nstraightforward automation capability that is easier to understand, easier to use, easier to teach, and is
\nmore user friendly. The new framework is built on the lessons of 20 years of wrapping analyses. The
\ninterfaces used will look familiar to anyone who has used our tools in the past, but the new framework

\nFramework. Existing workflows and legacy plug-ins are still supported; however, users can update
\nexisting workflows to take advantage of the new Component Plug-In Framework. Legacy Plug-Ins and
\nwrappers are still supported, and your existing workflows will still run exactly the same.<\/p>\n

\nyou may have an existing directory containing files. With Plug-Ins such as CAD, MATLAB, or Excel
\nComponents select \u201cImport Files Manually\u201d if your analysis files aren\u2019t already organized in a directory.
\nFor components such as the Script Component where no files may be needed select \u201cNo Files Needed\u201d.
\nPackaging files with the component makes reusing and distributing components easy.<\/p>\n
