Hello, I was wondering if anyone could help. I'm looking for some software that I can load on my laptop that would allow me to show 3D models created in Pro/E without having to check out a licence? If I'm going away for a week I might only need access for a day and don't want to take a licence away for that long if it wasn't going to get used often. I was wondering if there's any free software that could view step or iges files? I'm not looking for something that could manipulate models, more something that could show assemblies from different views, with the possiblity of hiding parts or exploded views.
Thanks
George
