This is a rant. It doesn't really need any replies. It just seemed that this might be a better outlet than throwing the computer over the cube wall. I am sure that many things would be clear if I would have gotten training, but Solidworks is supposed to be easy to use so why do I need that. I know how to run Pro/E so the idea of a parametric solid modeler is not new.
I am trying to make a drawing and am cursing the way views come in. I put in a top view and now would love for it to be oriented differently....of course, the way I want to orient it isn't one of the standard views...(all I want to do is rotate the @#* thing 90 degrees, a breeze in Pro/E). So, I either tough it out with the crappy views or go make a view oriented differently (I don't feel that I have any control over the orientation). GRR.....
And that is just to add to the pain of it picking hidden lines for dimensioning from in my view with no hidden lines shown.
