Hello!

I was a ProE user at first and than changed to NX UG and was really pleased with that software.
Now, my company is changing to SW and i have a few questions.

1. Is SW more similar to ProE or NX?

2. In NX one have a posibility to directly insert a cylinder or a box for example, and move it around and apply Boolean operation to objects. Does SW have similar function or u have to do all with sketch?

3. Above-mentioned function lets you to make "virtual" assembly (assembly without real constrains) and that is very helpful. Does SW have similar function?

Thank You
