Greetings,
I just started to use Inventor - for the kids sake. I use SolidWorks almost every day and there are two things that will make it fast for anyone.
1) Keyboard short-cuts (an absolute must)
2) A good mouse with a
center button.
By pressing on the center button you get the same functionality as the cube without having to move your mouse to the cube. It rotates and then zooms with the center button. I can spin any model and get to the view I need in less than 1 sec - it is just practice. If you plan on using SolidWorks, buy a mouse with a center button!
