Thanks to all of the presenters, users, and vendors, April's event went great (minus the technical difficulties)! At the meeting we were able to witness some of the powerful abilities of Pro/Engineer, including:

Demonstrations on how to use the “create flatten form” tool in Shtml.
Wildfire Optimization
Cable routing module & viewing wires in sub-assembly
Changing notes to reflect c'bored untapped holes
Adding protrusion and embosses to sheet metal parts
Plus much more!

We hope to see all of you again at our next meeting!
