Hi. It is very convenient to place the first feature at the center of the Absolute Coordinate (0,0,0) when starting the design work. At this time, press and hold the Ctrl key and drag it to the screen, and the feature enters the Coordinate center exactly. Drag_Feature.mp4

With the product design and manufacturing world’s recent shift to more remote collaboration, cloud-based CAD platforms are increasingly becoming a business essential. Manufacturers today are increasingly seeking to improve collaboration between their core engineering teams and an extended group of stakeholders within their organizations. These internal stakeholders include representatives across an array of functions – sourcing, operations, manufacturing, marketing, and sales. In order to share design files, engineers must find other ways to get feedback. This might include hand-walking a file over to a desk, taking input, and later incorporating feedback. Alternatively, a designer might send an email with detailed notes and a screengrab image. In both cases, the manual sharing of designs and compilation of feedback in an ad-hoc manner can result in misunderstandings and delays. Faced with the challenge of empowering these extended teams, manufacturing companies are now seeking improved digital and cloud-based product development solutions. Cloud-based CAD and Data Management solutions are no longer a nice-to-have technology, but a must-have technology. In the product development process, high levels of collaboration and communication are essential. Unfortunately, this process has often been undermined for organizations by the non-collaborative nature of their on-premise systems. As a result, many organizations have simply come to accept the delays and mistakes that come from inefficient communication and collaboration. To address these challenges, many product development teams are reassessing their current processes and moving towards solutions that will improve efficiency, agility, and accuracy. They are seeking to leverage cloud-based technologies to seamlessly manage, access, and share important data. With the cloud-based IronCAD SYNERGY platform, design documents can be instantly shared safely and securely. The single source of truth enabled by cloud architecture ensures that all parties to a design document are always working on the latest version. The risk of human error is significantly decreased as all CAD users can now see, access, and work off of the latest design document. Everyone is instantly aligned regardless of their location.

Hello everyone, in our company we have Innovate 2020 and 2017 installed, but we want to move to Version 2021. All of our Licenses are Network licenses in Version 22 they don't seem to work with Innovate 2021. Can we use these in the current Version for Innovate 2021 or do we have to (if my guess is correct) upgrade the .lic file to Version 23? Is there any Manual how to upgrade the .lic file? Thank you for your answers
