Which is better 2004 SP0 or SP2.1?

Hello all,

So far, I have read much about installation woes, but the only other big
problem spoken of was with the measure tool. That, by itself, could be
enough to keep me at SP0, but how about other problems? Should I stay
with SP0?

Sincerely,
Jerry Forcier

 

The hide edge bug that I outlined a couple of weeks ago is still there
in SP2.1.

Jerry:

The supression bug in sp0.0 - I'd say is pretty big.

So, is the suppression bug still there? And are Drawings any faster?

I haven't installed it sp 2.1 -- yet.

All I know is the suppression thing in sp0.0 is not very productive.
That was the original question I was addressing: "Should I stay with SP0?"

Well for me...
I have been working on a part for three weeks now (the part has 1280
features / about 120 hours of modeling)!
Opening the part and finding some red cherries in the FM makes my heart race
a little!
Due to some features being suppressed and hidden somewhere inside a folder!
All this takes ALLOT of EXTRA time to resolve!

Upgrading to the latest sp doesn't sound very productive either.
The "WI woes" I would certainly hesitate after reading some of the posts
here.
Not only the time it takes (a couple of hours - no big deal) but what about
the errors
that can occur while or after the process is complete?
Also not knowing if something is fixed or not - should this be up to the
user to discover?

I couldn't help but to use ether - my customers started giving me files in
04.

So far 2004 IMO has got of to a bad start.

You've lost (losing) that fuzzy feeling....

 

I don't know if you read my post but the measure tool problem spoken of
yesterday is present in 2004 sp0.0 check it out for yourself. I even
provided a viable workaround for it. It wasn't however a problem in 2003.

 

Seems like the drawing slowlyness is fixed.....I opened up one of those
drawings which gave me a headache in Sp1 and so far I couldn't slow it down
like I easily did before... also looks like that blinking behaviour while
moving / adding dimensions is gone too
