Yeah... everybody has a story. Those writers obviously get paid, probably a couple hundred bucks per article. I wrote for the org at one time, and it wasn't worth my time. So are you seeing what they would write for a buck, or are you getting an honest end users opinion? Guarantee you these guys don...

I just wanted some behind the scenes info that isn't immediately obvious by using the software. Any info about how the db is structured would be welcome.

I have only used Onshape for a couple of hours doing some basic tutorial stuff. I'm interested in how it manages part, assembly and drawing information. I'm assuming that using the word "files" is the wrong way to look at it. It all goes into a database? Where individual parts exist by lin...

People in Europe like to be independent too, but we couldn't afford the major investment for other 3D CAD software in the year 2000. And to be honest, this was the main reason for many users, and only choice for small companies. The decisions taken by Dassault aren't typical French schooled, I have...

The people who work at SW just have a job to do, and they do it. It's just a job. Difficulty arises when some old timers remember why we bought Solidworks instead of Pro/E, and it was because of the freedom, flexibility, and independence it afforded us. Pardon my saying so, but freedom and independe...

My hope is that they realize that 3DX isn't going to replace SW, and if they don't put some resources back into SW they will lose that market. But from what I can tell, they've done nothing but $#!+ on their SW customers for the last few years, so that hope is likely unfounded. No, GPB is being mov...
