**23.9.0**

It is now possible to read an output result file from FEM-Design (the file generated with the .bsc file workflow )and automatically convert it to an object that can be easily manipulated in Grasshopper or C#.

SaveFilePath will also save the results file in the same folder. If you need to run more than one model, this feature will help you in navigating throught the output results that the API is giving.
