Solid Edge sychronous tutorial progress..

I like the program a lot, most of the tutorials are ok to very good,
many are not so good
and some for instance provide an unworkable work flow that over
constrains a part precluding for instance being able to line up bolt
holes.... a stone wall if you run into it

the solution is to do the construction sequence as though the item
were on your work bench, that sort of logic cures the issue in most
cases

the help desk is superb same with the guy who sells it locally.... so
Im doing well on assemblies ... perhaps I can build a skid now, Im
getting close Its about 500% less
buggy than inventor...

far too much ov Your time here

What SE Usenet group?
And it's interesting anyway.

 

there is no SE users group. there are SE web stes.. I am trying out
various cad programs
Ive looked into SW also. and bought Inventor. (too buggy)... My view
is that any cad user
would have a passing interest in such a new development as
sychronous... a person has
the option of not reading such posts.

Usenet rules btw, far from recommending against off topic posts....
advises off topic posts. Did you
know that? most do not. You can look it up on various USENET
FAQ's... their statement is
as with any social group of people there are common interests beyond
the immediate topic and that
20% or so of off topic posts are healthy for the group.

I will say however that virtually all of my posts are not on the topic
of SW... that could be seen as out of line.
but then I try not be anally retentive on that and other issues. I
do my posting according to the group response
as a whole, if most seem to appreciate what I post, often entirely off
topic, say on the current economic mess,
I post that way. Many respond and great discussions ensue.

USENET guidlines go on to say that staying on a single isolated topic
misses the point of howe the topic and its
posters are affected by tangential issues... for instance if engineers
were being laid off en mass because of
a new self operating CAD/ design robot.... even though it was not a SW
robot...it would generally be considered
a topic of absolutely vital interest to the NG... especially seeing as
how there is no news group, at least not a
populated NG 'Robots take over the design business"..

you can see how that is of course? Generally its covered under the
headinng of life, and interpersonal relations, as
goes on in the office as well... we discuss the ball games and who is
screwing whom etc.


I'm 68 years old and sucessful in the design and mfgr business..not
all that comon at my age..and I get a lot more
than what is generally considered top rate money... Ive posted a few
times on how thats done also. If you see
a post from me like that sometime just pass it up... after all you may
have the best job on earth, working for GM
or some other company.
