2 Known issues and workarounds

• Visualising the wind field for a multi-rotor model crashes the program
  

3 Bugs fixed

• Rayleigh damping now working for nonlinear simulations 
• Hub visualisation was dependent on the chord of the first blade station 
• Crash when closing model with Python script after waiting dialog was shown 
• Pitch angle was not reinitialised when using a Python script 
• Damping loads were not applied correctly 
• Interpolation error when evaluating turbulent wind at hub height 
• Blade mass was 0 when copying a blade from the database
