Catia v5 r2015

[TiagoFigueiredo]

Hello,

I have tried the new release of v5, and I become quite happy with it. I have found for example in sketch mode, an auto dimension option, and now variable radius Cordal radius is in the same command.

I would like to see a text option for part design. When it will be applied?

@TiagoFigueiredo
Are you referring to the ability to write 3D text on a part? This is a major oversight in V5. There is a text tool in V6, but not in V5. The answer from Dassault has always been "use Type3". There are several workarounds out there. You could write text in a drawing, export to dxf, then import and copy/paste into a sketch, but the resulting text will be made up of only line segments - not curves. I helped develop another solution - Text Sketcher. It's a plug-in for V5 that allows you to write G1 continuous text in a sketch.

Hello, recently I have visited the dassault website, and I have seen there that the most recent version of catia,is the r24. But I have already the de r25. Why dassault says this in its website? I think that it's already there the r26.

one new good enhancement in r26 is CLA license that enables laser projection for composites. still looks pretty raw product but any way it's a good start.
