Believe it or not, some people from our headoffice think it could be awise idea to migrate our company to SolidEdge (the main CAD system froma sister company). So I need some amo to shoot against this idea. What I'm mainly interested in is:- Functionality comparison between Pro/E and SolidEdge- Productivity comparison between Pro/E and SolidEdge- options to import SolidEdge data into ProE - options to import ProE data into SolidEdge TIA, Olaf Corten Olaf Corten - CAD Supervisor - Engineering

I need to get a new plotter.We normally use electrostatic plotters from Oce, but management wants a cheaper solution this time.I've checked out HP & Encad (Kodak) and identified some potential models.But are there other major players?I need:* Mostly B&W, but need to do some simple color now and then (not photos).* Handle 36" (or larger) roll paper with automatic cutting.* Connect by Ethernet. Must be built-in, or use a plug-in card (like HP's jet-direct)* Support HPGL/2.* Under $5,000Any recommendations?Gerry Champoux Williams InternationalLead Engineer 2280 E.

Anyone have a clue as to what the 'Alternative Mass Properties' are used for ? Also what does 'designated', yes vs. no mean? Thanks

Thanks to those who replied.The few people who have tried it reported WF3 feels the same under Vista as XP provided the latest video drivers, bios patches etc are installed. Older drivers were indeed very slow. There was no feedback on when it might be supported by PTC - we will pursue this through our local distributor.WF2 does not appear to run under Vista.Best wishesJohn Prentice

Gurus,I'm using WF 2.0 in sketcher mode and have an extensive sketch which Ibelieve has a line on line in there somewhere. Is there a quick way todiscover where it is without deleting and undoing every line in thesketcher? I remember this being asked before but I can't remember if theanswer was ever posted. If it was, then please accept my apologies.Richard
