Re: Future of Inventor
Now that we've all seen the kiosk in Atlanta and the software has hit shelves, it's time to revive this thread.
Who has it so far? What do you think?
Personally, I don't have it, but I saw a lot in Atlanta, and I like contact constraints (i think that's what their called), which allow you to move things by contact with surfaces, like things do in the real world, eliminating the whole issue of "phasing through" solid objects. (I've already foreseen one incredible application of this, but I'm not going to let it slip just yet.)
The frame generator is a neat feature for designing, but for award-submission-quality files, I don't think it'll cut it.
However, given the school computers my team will be stuck with, I don't think they'll (yes, they...I'm taking back my power tools...or am I?) be able to use the features to the best of their ability. Our school computers are so slow, so limited by security privileges (we can't right-click files or web pages), and so all-around bad, that even 10 was quite a stretch.
