• Ability to edit and save DFA class files

• A context sensitive DFA file editor

• Typing completion for units, keywords, methods, and functions

• Model Viewer to visualize part geometry for standalone operation

• Drag and drop for adding class instances, KF functions, and template code to a DFA file

• Text adoption from geometry in NX to the DFA file

• Customize categories of classes or functions

• Customize an icon to represent the class or function

• Check DFA syntax and show the line containing the error

• Run either standalone or from interactive NX.
