Functional Additions and Improvements

Added filter Plot Global Variables over time

The filter is useful for plotting, for example, the dependencies of Summarized External forces (Total External Force) from time.

Improved filter Linear Spectral Analysis

Added the ability to display the total stressed and deformed state.

>Improved filters Harmonic analysis and Frequency analysis

Added output of complex amplitude (optionally displayed imaginary and real parts) .

Added the ability to save animation

Added a plugin that allows you to record animation in h264 format (Windows only).
