    Faster Surface Modeling for Proposals and Concepts

    We use GSD and Shape to do all our primary modeling, but with GSD it takes our designers more time to do proposals and concepts compared to our competitors who are using Rhino or other non-history based software tools. My question is what design mode would work or be similar to the Rhino...

    Catia Performance Degrades During the Day

    Yes we work on an office network with each machine using its own environment and settings. The other workstations don't suffer from the same affliction only the one workstation in the office and a home/office workstation.

    Catia Performance Degrades During the Day

    We have two workstations in the office that when using Catia (V5-6R2021) all day the user input slows down during the day. So towards the end of the day and particularly in drafting after selecting an entity to implement a command or to finish a command the windows busy icon pops up and spins...

    Drawing View Title Callout Labels

    We need to change the color of the drawing view title labels ( like "Side View" & "Scale" ) I searched and tried various options in my Drafting Standards file to no avail, what is the specific path in the tree of the standards file to achieve this or is there another way? Using V5-6R2017.

    Catia File Explorer Icons

    Thanks JeniaL That worked like a charm. I had tried the cnext /regserver but without the catstart -run in front and it hadn't worked, your command did the trick [thumbsup2]

    Catia File Explorer Icons

    Quadro Card Settings

    I have a Quadro K2000 card. For Catia is there any specific settings required to optimize graphics/display performance in the NvVidia Control panel, other than just have the latest driver update and that's it?. Under 3D Settings/Manage 3D Settings and then the "Programs Settings" tab I selected...

    In a composite eye plate what would the tolerance be for an "Interference Fit" on Dia 30mm hole for a 2205SS straight bush or top hat bush, the C-Plate thickness is 25mm, would the guidelines for metal holes be appropriate for composite carbon plates or would it be slightly different and by what...

    License Charge Options

    We have a couple of seats of Catia V5-6R2013 and were looking at the option of doing a TOS (Termination of Support) which would be valid for 5 years, this could work as apparently Dassault has apparently not going to keep developing V5 in any meaningful way. My question is if we go this route...
