Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 2.0 Update from Pro/ENGINEER 2001

Overview

With the release of Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire and Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 2.0, there have been many productivity and functionality improvements from Pro/ENGINEER 2001.  These include a new user interface, a consolidated set of feature tools, and the ability to interact directly with models and features.

The Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 2.0 user interface includes integrated web and folder browsers, providing easy access to design information and model data.  Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire feature tools utilize a dashboard interface, providing simple and intuitive access to options for creating and editing features.  Modifying models is made easier through the use of drag handles that enable dynamic modifying of model geometry, and the new undo/redo tool enables reversing of operations such as deleting and editing features. There are many enhancements to feature editing tools, including several new patterning options, and new tools for quickly and dynamically grouping, copying and pasting features. Creating drawings has been made easier using a single new drawing view dialog box that consolidates all drawing view options. Creating and editing sheetmetal walls is now quicker through the use of new dashboard tools that consolidate several wall types, enabling easy editing and previewing of wall geometry.
