I guess this is how SURFWARE is dealing with the total embarrassment / loss of SURFCAM Solids to Pathtrace (EdgeCAM).
Pathtrace (EdgeCAM) laid out the money and took over development of A3DS's Paralogix. (SURFCAM Solids)
When Pathtrace integrates their surfacing into what they purchased from A3DS (Paralogix) they will have a significant modeling advantage over their competitors... Gibbs, MasterCAM, FeatureCAM, SurfCAM, etc.
Do you have any intention of posting your thoughts on SolidEdge curve and surface creation with what UGS calls "Rapid Blue" technology ? I have not gotten around to trying it. Seems to me that "Rapid Blue" technology could be a huge advantage over what SolidWorks has.
I note Gary Lucus is *once again* silent / MIA cause it's much easier to criticize me than post helpful info on the technology in SolidEdge. The same can be said for you.
Anyone want to discuss using SolidEdge Rapid Blue curve / surfacing ?
I'd look at SolidEdge myself but I'm tied up at the moment with getting back into MasterCAM (Have not used it since version 5)and learning VX.
An interesting note: I was at Gateway C.C. in Phoenix today. I noticed they teach Pro/ E, SolidEdge and AutoCAD. SolidWorks does not appear to be taught there. I have noted an increase in SolidWorks use in Phoenix however as I'm seeing more done prints done in SolidWorks.
