Re: Version 2.05 Quirks

I upgraded yesterday to 2.05. Three times now the router has taken off in the up direction when I clicked on the left mouse button. I get a Soft stop exception error when the router hits the top.

Re: Users of Alibre Design Personal Edition

I have found a solution to the problem. I deleted the Update.exe file and started the program; it regenerated a new Update.exe but created a new ‘Missing file error’. I was able to access the ‘Update Options’ in the tools menu, something I was not able to do before. I shut off the automatic updates ...

Re: Users of Alibre Design Personal Edition

The Sales team finally got back to me this afternoon. The problem is definitely a licence issue imposed by Geomagic. The personal version was only a 32 bit version when I bought it, but they said it would work on a Windows 8, 64 bit machine. I have had no issues with the program until I upgraded to ...

Users of Alibre Design Personal Edition

Here’s a heads up to anybody who uses Alibre Design Personal edition. I have just up-graded my office computer to Windows 8.1 and I am now having issues. I have been dealing with their support team, which has been very helpful. First I lost my license and had to get a new one. I then started getting...

Re: Converting 2D photos to 3D objects

Thanks for the links. I've had a project come up and I'm going to have to put my research on the back burner for a bit until I get it done. I did get a chance to play with PhotoAnim 3D but it doesn't have enough control over its settings. The auto wizard does a reasonable job in creating a 3d surfac...

Re: Converting 2D photos to 3D objects

Thanks for the info.
I have tried Blender and used it to modify some probe scans, but it has a very steep learning curve along with it. What started me looking was the demo version of Art Cam and the face wizard. We are getting our first serious snowfall today, so I have time to check out your links.
