Using CAD Tools to Edit Your Mesh

There may be times when all you need is a nice water-tight mesh. Scan the part, run the Healing Wizard, maybe a Rewrap command, and presto! But what if you want to add a precise feature? Perhaps…

Using the CTRL Key

While helping a customer with a support call the other day, I came across more proof that the developers are more clever than credited. As part of their strive to make sure the software is intuitive, a lot…

Today we heard about a great use case for reverse engineering from some Rapidform XOR users in Germany:

Since 1981 Rosenberg Ventilatoren GmbH (http://www.rosenberg-gmbh.com), located in Künzelsau-Gaisbach, has developed into an outstanding centre of the air movement and air handling industry by
