E-drawings for the i-pad was released on May 1st. It’s great to have it here but honestly I think it’s about 2 years late. Why did it take so long? e-drawings hasn’t changed really over the last 10 years and I’ve been running the e-drawings app on the i-pad 1 so from a technical standpoint…
If you follow this sort of thing I’m sure you’ve already seen plenty of information about SolidWorks World 2012. The bloggers and press people did a great job of putting information out quickly this year. SolidWorks World is a very hectic time for me which means I’m not as able to deliver the information from…
I’ve arrived in San Diego. First order of business this morning was to register for the conference and grab some breakfast. Registration was exciting for me this morning because I noticed SolidWorks is using an image I created on the conference notebooks, t-shirts and phone apps. I always like to see my work pop up.…
Hard to believe but SolidWorks World 2012 is just 4 days away. I can’t believe it’s already been a year! I also can’t believe this will be my 9th consecutive SolidWorks World! Wow, seems like I was just in Boston in 2004 attending my first conference. Where does time go? Like past events this…
It’s been a time consuming process but I finally have a new website! Since my life is continuously evolving my website’s need to do the same to more accurately represent me. What I’ve done is combine my personal blog site, www.robrodriguez.com and my business site, www.axiscadsolutions.com into one site. This should make it easier to…
If you’re a PhotoView 360 user you may have noticed an increase in a flow of PhotoView 360 information from SolidWorks. This is very welcome in my mind and I have to believe other PhotoView 360 users like this new information exchange as well. This flow of information can be found at the SolidWorks forums…
Photorealistic Rendering Using SolidWorks and PhotoView 360 is a new step By step guide from DS SolidWorks. This guide replaces the PhotoWorks guide and is specifically written for PhotoView 360 2011. At 562 pages it covers all aspects of PhotoView 360 as well as RealView and OpenGL graphics modes in SolidWorks. The book isn’t available…
“Solidworks to modo: What’s in the kit” was a well attended session at SolidWorks World 2011. Paul McCrorey and I teamed up to give this session together. Neither of us had ever done a session with a partner but it went well and very smooth I think. The presentation gives an overview of what users…
In September Brian Harrison from NVIDIA contacted me and asked if I’d be interested in trying out a new Quadro 5000 graphics card. I know most people would need their arm twisted to try out the latest hardware or software from a company but I jumped at the chance for a couple of reasons. First…
Dassault had the CAD world talking when it showed a cloud based version of SolidWorks at SolidWorks World 2010. I sat in the audience during the conference and listen to Bernard Charles talk about the Dassault family of products and their mantra of “3d for all”. That’s why I was surprised when I learned the newest software …
