Question

In comparing Pro/E to Solidworks I found something I really like in SW!

.....when I hit the little "X" box up in the far upper right corner, it closes very quickly!

      ‌That just doesn't compare to "Creo has stopped responding." or "Fatal Error! Results being written to traceback.log file." The day just isn't fun if you don't get these multiple times a day.

        Actually, I've found SW more unstable.  It seems slower, and crashes easier, and I haven't done anything complicated yet.  What was causing creo to crash, for me, was Windburn, or if I was trying to extend rules from an assembly down to a TON of parts made in various releases.

        In fact, we were doing a webex and the guy was running SW....and it crashed.

          I like when Solidworks Certified Trainers pay me to produce models for them because "Solidworks can't do it".

                SW 2015 is a terrible release. The most unstable platform yet.

                2014 was excellent.

                I shudder to see whats coming with 2016 with it's new UI

                A LOT of people are complaining on the SW forum about the 2015 release, glad I'm playing with 2014.....

                Funny then that my '15 SW crashes less than Creo 2 M040.  I've given both serious workouts.  But I do find a lot of things in SW annoying at best.
