Creo 1.0 Sketch

[DeanLong]

Anyone know if PTC will offerSketch as stand alone product?

I think they will have zoom and right click as an option now. Moving the
mouse up is still in there but moving it in other directions is currently
being discussed. They might go for an ad campaign with a 3 to 5 dollar opt
out program. Sorry, could not resist. All the splitting of stuff into stand
alone prods and that microsoft 2010 ribbon thing is making it difficult to
focus today.

Alfonso...you mis-read my question. I am not talking of the Sketcher within the Creo product. I am referring to PTC's Photoshop fighter called Creo Sketch.

I did receive word back soon after mypostfrom PTC that the product is offered as a downloadable app on the PTC site.

Nah i got it right the first time. I was just playing on words since their
last presentation to us. It basically started to sound like the want to
bill/license/distribute pro/e in as many little pieces as possible. So I
could not resist and jumped in with your unrelated question there.

If Creo Sketch is supposed to fight Photoshop, they have a very long way
to go. As it is it's a little bit better than MS Paint.



And, for a brand new product, it doesn't obey window positioning rules
in Windows7. You can drag it to the top to maximize or to the side to
tile and if you do maximize it, it covers the entire window including
the Windows taskbar.

Yes, well, Office 2007 doesn't obey Windows colour scheme rules, so what
hope is there for anything else?



I still have no idea whether an Office window is active or not - I have
to click in it again just to make sure.
