    Is the new build 1137 working?

    It seems as if the new build must be working. I don't see the same amount of complaints as before. How is it going for those still using it?

    not to good for me , it just caused other issues.
    none of my part settings will take effect on my system, i have to retype in dimensioning specifications everytime i open a file. everytime i try to save a bbcd file to dxf/dwg the files have other solids from other drawing ontop of them. iges failed bad surfaces, bla bla bla. and a few other issues, what do you think any simular problems.

    chaz6966,

    I have seen some of the issues that you describe:

    1. Part Settings are only held within the bbcd files. Any other file types do not support those settings.

    2. Commonly, issues with solids occur due to the way in which the surfaces were generated. I have seen files that display the same tendancies that you describe, in the end the surfaces that the user was trying to save were poorly generated and resulted in errors when the system attempted to save them to other formats.

    I would be interested to a see the file(s) that you are having trouble with. I may be able to help. You can post them or PM me.

    Regards

    It still has lots of bugs. More so if you are using metric.

    It doesn't crash as often as before but still far more than necessary.

    Other issues as other have described.

    I guess no chance of getting them fixed now that they have issued a new version and dumped all the customers that have invested time in trying to use the considerable amount of work arounds to get the basic functionality going.
