I'm not, but I wanted one when it came out in 2016, because it's build for CAD workers - and has positive reviews across the board. Although by now you could probably get more bang for your buck just purchasing a traditional PC tower with an intel i7 processor, NVIDIA Quadro graphics card, and...
Yes. Yours are locked by your Administrator - you'll have to talk with whoever controls your CATSettings.
Working with the cache system allows you to load cgr representations of the 3D instead of the raw CATIA design data. It can help when working with large assemblies where you need to see a...
1. Tools > Generate CATPart from Product
2. You might look into exporting the entire big assembly as an stl or iges file just to get a small, manageable file in order to create the surrounding shield.
3. Uncheck "Load referenced documents" in Tools > Options > General tab and then only...
Sub CATMain()
Dim documents1 As Documents
Set documents1 = CATIA.Documents
Dim partDocument1 As PartDocument
Set partDocument1 = documents1.Add("Part")
End Sub

The vba enviroment is not automatically installed with CATIA. Have you tried running the vba6.msi file?

Sounds like you have a skeletal structure and you want to be able to sweep profiles around them all. You could spend a lot of time creating a macro, or you could create a power copy with the sweep, sketch, and sketch plane and then instantiate that powercopy on all segments of your skeletal...

1. In order to save section views in scenes you need an FTA license as ferdo mentioned.
2. A work around is to use a split to cut the parts needed to generate the drawing view. Then lock the drawing view and deactivate the split operation in the 3D.

Take a look at my macro here for using a recursive function to change instance names in sub assemblies:

A picture of the model and the model tree would help. Maybe there's a pad feature somewhere in the modeling tree that's unintentional.
