    Dimensions in Sketches

    CATIA V5 R27

    Hey Tiago, i've seen a couple of your threads regarding Catia, NX and Creo (that you are looking for the best solution...). what do you think of catia vs NX with regards to productivity, ease of use, product advancement... also how is catia for drawing production? i think it lags quite a lot...
