    tutorials or training books

    3D CAD software for plastic part design

    Hi Peka Fm1 is not a standalone, but a add on for a catia configuration. Combine for example a xm1 and a fm1 and you got you self a strong modelling system. If you “feel the need to” invest a little more money I would personally go for the ym2.(freestyler and so on included) Best regards.

    close profile - view commands

    There is not a command called “close profile” but from Catia 5V7 (SP4 or 5 I think) there is a command called “sketch analysis” you can find it under “tools”. This command should do the trick when you have problems whit sketches. Best regards
