    Anyone using SW2008 yet?

    Just loaded SW2008. What was DS thinking? I hate the new user interface. Very annoying. If I wanted this sort of headache I would have purchased Inventor! Why is my handle 65Roses? Please visit http://www.cff.org/aboutCFFoundation/About65Roses/ to learn why!

    When was Microstation at its best....

    Was Microstation better off when it was under Intergrah or at Bentley? Somewhere along the way the ball was dropped by one or both companies in its competition with Autocad. I first cut my teeth into CAD with Microstation V4 and V5. Later I learned Autocad verions comparable to V4 and V5. In my...

    TPS reports from the movie Office Space

    Anyone who has seen this movie knows what I'm talking about as to TPS reports. My manager actually gave me an assignment recently and told me it was for the new TPS project currently going on in our factory. I almost died laughing. He actually referred to my work as a TPS report. I don't think...

    Smart dimensions

    I have a rectangular solid. I'm in sketch mode and have placed 16 circles along the same axis on the solid. I realized I placed the cirles too far from one edge and need to move the whole axis of cirles closer to the edge. Is there anyway to move all the circles all at once with the smart...

    The public's view of our profession in the US

    Recently I've read a lot about how the engineering profession is not viewed by the public like it used to be. The authors of these articles speak about how we have lost ground to other professions such as doctors, lawyers, accountants, etc, in the eye of the public. These authors (for example...

    ESD testing

    I'm trying to find a test method for measuring ESD of gloves worn by operators in our clean room. This was a request of my supervisor. I've browsed the ESD association web site and have found nothing that deals directly with what I'm trying to accomplish.

    Built in Translators

    I'm going to be using SW Professional to do jig and fixture design. Will I be able to open CATIA files of our product into SW and design the jig/fixtures around our product? SE is claiming their newest version will be able to perform this task. I don't see how they would be able to do this and...

    Microstation history

    When was Microstation first introducted to the market? I used it in college during the mid 90's to do mechanical design work. At that time it was with Intergraph and later changed to Bentley. Who orginally developed the software? I read that Intergraph developed Solid Edge and later sold it to...

    history of SE

    When did SE first come onto the market? Was the company called SE or was it just a brand name to some company. I read once that UGS bought SE in 1998 from Intergraph. The story I heard some years back (mid 90's) was the software was developed by engineers who came together to form their own...

    SW vs. SE

    I'm currently evaluating each program by going through the tutorials of each. Currently my company has a few seats of SE but my department only uses AutoCad. I've been given the choice of which program to upgrade to. Since our company all ready has a few seats of SE does it make sense to select...

    SolidWorks vs. Solid Edge

    I've seen posts here in the past aksing for help on which of these products is the better package. The response most gave is to go thru the tutorials of both and decide for yourself. I'm just about to begin going thru the tutorials on both demo copies. In the past I've used AutoCAD, Mechanical...
