## NEAMS Workbench 5.3.0
#### Added:
- Support for RTE alternate invocation
- HERON alternate runtime invocation of XML2EDDI that converts native HERON XML to supported Workbench EDDI formatted input
- MOOSE alternate runtime invocation of Mesh-Only that conducts a '--mesh-only' execution
- Localhost remote runtime invocation (all runtimes) of 'Use current session' that launches the job in the Workbench's current resource session providing for faster job iterations (no queue wait times)
- Support for Dakota Batch evaluation mode
- Text editor navigable file underscoring and quick navigation via CTRL+Mouse move and CTRL+Left Mouse Button click. MacOS uses the CMD key instead of CTRL. This allows for quick navigation between MOOSE MultiApp input files by CTRL+Left clicking the MultiApp filename. Files are deemed navigable if the file can be found to exist adjacent to the file being edited or as provided (e.g., absolute path).
#### Changed:
- Job launch now automatically displays the Messages panel
- MOOSE jobs automatically open any updated Exodus files
- PyARC to version 2.1
- MOOSE CSV processor to increase line weight and scatter size for improved visual appearance
#### Fixed:
- Issue with IBM LSF BSUB invocation requiring the submit script to be redirected on stdin to BSUB. This fix does require the submission executable to be named bsub.
- Missing Joblib requirement in MacOS standalone Conda environment
- MOOSE Generated mesh issue when a type=Generated* was used


## NEAMS Workbench 5.2.0
#### Added: 
- Support for Holistic Energy Resource Optimization Network (HERON)
