Rhino 5

Will Scan and Solve Version 2 be written exclusively for Rhino 5?

Thx,

Bob

Bob,

I don't anticipate we will restrict V2 to Rhino 5 only.

I am curious what the population of users looks like.

Everybody want to weigh in? Are you using Rhino 4, Rhino 5 (32-bit), or Rhino 5 (64-bit)?

HI:

I own Rhino 4 and am using Rhino 5 WIP. I have a 32 bit laptop and a 64bit desk top. I haven't put Scan and Solve on my big computer yet.

One of the things I really like about Scan and Solve is that it runs well on my lap top.

I also own Alibre, which I love and it is really affordable. Rhino and Alibre work really well together.

I think a version of Scan and Solve for Alibre might be a big hit.

I will purchase Rhino 5 when it is released. I like using it.

In my day job I have a large multicore computer which runs ANSYS and SolidWorks. I find I need

a fairly powerful computer to complete an analysis since there seams to be a fairly large amount of iterative

calculations done in ANSYS.

ANSYS is definitely out of my price range.

My focus is engineering as apposed to industrial design so I might have a sligthly more technical

requirement for my software. I think alot of the simplicity in a software package comes from the layout

of the user interface. Things need to flow smoothly when a software package used.

I own a structural software package called Visual Analysis andI have been really happy with the way

the user interface is layed out. Everything is right on the screen and easy to find.
