About

form•Z pro is a powerful 3D design application featuring a variety of modeling personalities and tools with an easy to use interface to express and communicate your imagination. It is based on advanced 3D solid and surface modeling methods that maintain accurate representations as you progress from design to visualization, layout, animation and fabrication. Object Symmetry creates a plane of symmtrey for an object. Subsequent operations to the object maintain symmetry by updaing the opposte sids of the model to match. The symmetry functionality has special consideration for NURBs curves, NURB surfaces and Sub-D objects. Reference Files are simply data from one project displayed inside another project. Reference files allow for complex static data to be mainteined in external files and supports coloboration where files can be shaered between team members as a design evolves. Python is a easy to use yet rich scripting language.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Speed, ease of use, accurate dimensioning, incredible surfacing. If you disagree, you haven't used it (or not long enough). If you dislike the lack of design history (not parametric) and lack of DFM attributes, figure it out with a workflow that works with other CAD software (I did). I'm a mechanical engineer that won't go a day without this CAD gem. Oh, and it's a ONE TIME PURCHASE!

Cons

  • Not parametric, no live lofting, some bugs with new releases, but they quickly fix them. The power of speed and ease of use allows creativity and functional design to coexist, so the benefits far outweigh the limitations.
