Anyone at the SWW8 wish to discuss their favor enhancements in S/W 2009?

I like both the slot feature and assembly handling for faster loading.

I would have to say the following.

- Magnifying Glass Tool
- Measure Tool in Dual Units
- Use Negative Numbers in Dimensions

Overall, it looks awesome. Cheers

I wasn't there but after reading

http://designsmarter.typepad.com/mikepuckett/2008/01/solidworks-wo-3.html

these would be my choices;

Dimensioning of sketch elements as they are created. (This will be a huge time saver if properly implemented)

BOM functionality in the assy model. (Could be very useful)

Ability to use negative numbers in dimensions. (Very handy for flipping geometry)

"Magnifying Glass" tool to allow local zoom in without having to constantly pan, zoom-in & zoom-out.

A Measure tool that support dual units. (About time!)

Bi-directional Title Block tool.
