Anders Lindgren Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Yes, where is the PU1 we all are waiting for? First: "There will be a product update release in late October (or early november)." Then: "Scheduled to release at the end of November timeframe." What will come first? Santa or PU1? / Anders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cary OConnor Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 PU1 for IronCAD 8.0 will be releasing soon. It has been in testing and QA. We are addressing some issues before we release PU1 due to some major changes in the drawing environment. Cary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santa or PU1? / Anders 11959[/snapback] I'm getting a bit nervous about this not coming PU1. We all have customers who expect a time frame for delivery from us!!.

cborer Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 (edited) No new creative tools? Just productivity and drawing! (Which is nice to have. All are welcome.) Especially missing the merge 3d curve on that I was hoping so much. The merge 3d curve is a must, without I cannot do my job. Its not a question of a bit faster or a bit easier. Its a question of do it or forget it! Its not just a nice to have. On complicate edges Iron CAD cuts 3d curve as it likes to. No chance to repair these curves. No possibility to create one proper curve from them. And at the end no chance to get proper surfaces from them. Iron Cad offers many ways to get an extrude shape with any comfort for handling. Now there is one more way! Nice to have; of course. But this job can easily be done with the project curve tool. Still I cannot realize my ideas without the merge 3d curve. And there is no way around or beside it to get a solution. I cannot understand also why IC invested so much in the new Surface tools based on 3d curves when the 3d curve tool set is that incomplete. Instead of that IC develops things that I never saw asked for in this forum. Is there another one? Is there a forum called people we care? I cannot wait my whole life until IC completes its shape creation tool set. So I think about selling my Iron Cad seat. I will watch out for a CAD solution that supports its clients and care about their problems. I should have done that much earlier. (I am user since Trispectives) Total frustration here!

Floris Stam Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 Can you show me a file of image or ic file of what your trying to do? Floris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cborer Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 (edited) Hi Floris Here is one. I need to unfold the orange faces. First I will have to thicken and offset them to get the sheetmetal konstruction. So I need them proper. The whole shape was cut in pieces here (from the thicken face creation) I was able to delete them with a far way of boolean, and boolean away negative copied, negative shapes from objects that where a little minor. So inside and outside is OK now. Still I need to melt the beside faces. Rhino will unfold them separetly. At the end this is a sample (I work on it now) where a far way around works. Several others create twisted shapes and so on. I would have search for it cause I deleted many of these ideas. Thanks for your interests.

B. Ludin Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 ...with respect to sacking people? Do you know something that I dont? Sure. But nothing that you should be too concerned about - except, maybe, for the exact day of the imminent doomsday Have IronCAD decreased in personel? Or was it just a joke I dident understand maybe 11955[/snapback] I was just playing with words and local traditions. Here in Switzerland, Santa is said to sack bad kids in the literal sense, i.e. he puts them in his sack and takes them away (where, nobody knows). And of course, IronCAD LLC might want to sack us, their customers (in the sense of robbing or ripping off) I didn't take into account that sacking also means dismissing people in modern slang. Didn't mean to worry you. Cheers, Beat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Bertilsson Posted December 13, 2005 Author Share Posted December 13, 2005 Aha, I see. Sounds like a nice tradition. To not sucking people away at Christmas / Marcus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ebedding Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 A positive note here... These added features are a good thing for us, they address the basics which we use all the time. The new 2D tools look like they will save time and simplify the effort required to create basic 2D geometry on a workplane. We design complex automated machinery. We have never needed to use freeform curved surfaces. Most of our geometry is very simple using standard shapes and holes. We create extremely large & complex assemblies with anywhere from 1000 to 5000 parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Urban Olars Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 The new improved trimming tool looks like it's going to save many mouse-clicks for me. I can't wait to start using it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlehnhaeuser Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I can't wait to use the autoview mode, thicker geometry, colored dwgs, and 2d crosssection slection. YIPPPEEE! Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cary OConnor Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 That is still the plan. If we feel that the quality is not ready, we will release the PU1 in Jan. Cary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Bertilsson Posted December 23, 2005 Author Share Posted December 23, 2005 Sounds good. Hope I can take it with me home today then. So I have the holiday to test the new functionality. Have started the count down clock / Marcus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cary OConnor Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Sorry folks. It doesn't appear that we will be releasing the PU1 before the Holidays. Ran into a few show stopper issues that will make use push it out until Jan. Cary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
