Hi all,
So I am trying to convince myself that upgrading is worth it.
My last upgrade a little less than 3 years ago when V14 came out, I have been a user since V8, upgrade to pro with V9, added powerpack with V10, upgraded at V12 and V14. I skipped V15 and have looked over V16 and I just don't see anything other than 'verify clearance' and 'arc slot polygon' that I would use. I mostly use solid modeling for 3d printing now and V14 Build 1625 has been the most stable of any of the releases for me and I would hate to lose that stability. Is there any new feature since V14 Pro that I should consider when making my decision?
I do want to support the product development, but I also have a number of products I have to juggle upgrades for and my cad usage goes in spurts, might be real active for 3 months and not touch it for 6 months or more.
Any killer feature I am overlooking?
Thanks,
Don Bailey (aka grumpygeek)
