Unfortunately I have no clue - my wife’s the one that uses this, not me haha.
Comment on Is there no good inexpensive CAD software?
akilou@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks agoI’m intrigued but confused. What’s the difference between 3DEXPERIENCE and xDesign? Are they the same thing or different? Do you need both or just one or the other? They’re called “packages” so do you need some kind of base install and then choose which package to put on top of it?

The 3DExperience package is the classic Solidworks, so it’s purely parametric and has a ton of legacy and advanced features some people need. It also really only runs on Windows, and don’t even bother with Wine lmao xDesign is kind of their cloud-only Fusion competitor. It runs in a browser and has SubD modeling. I haven’t really worked in this one, but I would bet it’s missing features from Desktop Solidworks that would be dealbreakers for a lot of people.

Do you know if you can import and edit STL files with 3d experience?
