Any book about Catia
(OP)
Hello,
Someone knows a good book (help based) about Catia, something like the help, where every bitton or function it is explained in detail, but much better then this crap that DS call help.

If you are using those files to train yourself, you are using the wrong document. The online doc is not a training document.
Richard Cozzens did write a book on V5.
If you search Amazone you find this:

When you need help on a function, just select the icon and press F1, the onlince doc (help) will then open to what you have selected.
If you do not select any function, catia gives you help on selecting element...
what do you need ?

RE: Any book about Catia
Now that's a help, and coming back to my question, i need a book like that, in small terms a help book.

RE: Any book about Catia
But it is not training material, it's help documentation
RE: Any book about Catia
(properties) described. That is what i need, not some bullshit crap how to select faces.
I want something more easy and fast, but thank you for your help.

CATIA is a very complex software, you have a lot of workbenches to work with them.
Its very well known that SW is a very friendly software, but cannot compete with CATIA in complexity.
You have first to define which workbenches are you interested in and then try to find tutorials made by users...
I see that you are in automotive field, so probably you are using a lot GSD..there are here few threads where Kapitan give few very nice explanations (at least to me) about surfaces..check also http://2htts.com/CATBlog/index.php?itemid=41 and you can find more others also on Internet for different workbenches, including few demo chapters from different books.
If you want to learn faster, then a specific certified training is also welcome (I know, it cost..).

It looks like frustration. I am sorry you feel that way. I wish I could help.
In order to make a pad, you need a profile, usually defined by a sketch. When the profile is defined, just select it and the Pad function et Voila !
Can you tell us if you had any training ?
I tried Autocad in my early days, and compared to catia V3 I really felt frustrated as I cannot create 3D stuff and rotate the view point. I had bad memories also about Pro-E.
I must admit I never had any training with Pro-E or Autocad. I had training in CATIA V3 and V4 and I can say this really help me. Thanks to those how help get training me when I started ;)

After that i switched ti catia and now i am serioselly considering to switch back to SW, catia has lots of bugs and the lack of fine details makes me very angry.
My trainings are 0, usually i take a pirate version of a program and i try to learn alone.
I was hoping to find some tutorils or a different help, something like SW help.
But txs alot, I did found usfull informations on this thread.

RE: Any book about Catia
There you will find suggestion for catia basic books and also some links to web based basic material
RE: Any book about Catia
You want to learn by yourself, fine. But do not expect to learn as fast as with a training.
You said that you are usually learning with a pirate version and you do not want to spend some money to get a book from Amazon. I know, everything is money driven, sometime I feel sad.
You should explain your boss that he will save time (money) if he provide you with training. Unless you told your boss you were efficient on v5, he should agree and pay for the training.

On the plus side, training not only helps you discover how to work with CATIA, it also lets you learn techniques that will make your work more efficient.
