completely free parametric cads are not there.
exist trial versions with limited duration of the license (e.g. for pro/e they give you a 30-day license).
After that if you like you buy a personal edition license that you cannot use for commercial purposes but costs 20 times less than a standard license.

Yes, but you know, the mac zealots have the vice of being a little permalosetti.
How does it go with the big assemblies? If I don't remember badly years ago there were problems, reading the American forum. I had tried a little cad but always on small asses and I had found myself quite well, but I could not deepen this aspect.
is it still written in java?
I realize, of course, that I'm asking the bear how good his wine is!

Sounds interesting. I can't download the express version.. .
He downloaded me the trial version of 30gg, I tried to put the date forward to see what features has the free version...but he says to buy a license.
How do I do that?

dear hunter, the most honest thing we can do is give users the opportunity to try it for free so that they themselves can express the judgment on the cost/benefit ratio according to their actual needs. for 30 days we enable the professional level with development of sheet metal, which the software passes without time limits to the free express mode that still allows to continue to save as modeled.
about the graphic management of complex axioms, alibre does not use opengl graphics accelerations at all but directx. paradoxically, therefore, alibre is faster on a cheap computer from a few hundred euros with windows 7 and a video game card of the last generation than on a professional workstation cad with one - for us completely useless - blasonata graphics card accelerated opengl.
back then to the theme of this post, that is the free cad, confirming that we maintain the free express level I wanted to explain our commercial policy for the undoubted turns not only economic but also cultural. we have experienced an aggressive pricing policy last year through temporary offers under 100 euros, finding excellent response from the market.
some experts had commented that there would not have been possible to maintain long subcost initiatives. We are now proud to be able to deny them. abandoning a price level that is often improposable for many individual users, we managed to overcome with the increase in sales volume the loss of revenues resulting from price cuts. we believe that the new attack price of 97 euros allows anyone to own a professional solution cad 3d without limits of time validity. Moreover, we include the translate converter in every version of our alibre, also that from 97 euros, so that any files already existing and coming from other source can be immediately recovered in alibre.
when we have also made available the basic course in Italian free of charge on our site, we have demonstrated beyond doubt our answer to something new in the market, the diy wave, to say it to the American: domestic users and small professionals who demand the same sophisticated professional tools so far reserved to large companies. Every day we meet dozens of individual users looking for advanced cad tools to realize their innovative ideas, and it is not just students or enthusiasts, but more and more often they are the same designers of the big companies who want to continue to develop at home or on the road their insights. simply cannot face investments of thousands of euros... .

dear lightning, when you download the trial version www.lista.it/alibre/tutorials.html part a timer because for 30 days the software is enabled at the professional level (i.e. according to the three levels paid, including sheet development). If within this time period the user purchases the software then it is not necessary to uninstall the trial version and we grant two other installations in different computers for a total of three always enabled stations for each license purchased. passed the thirty days without purchase, at the start the alibre software declares that the proof of the professional version has expired and asks confirmation to move to the express version without any time limit. Of course, it's only one-time request. then the software continues to save but has some limitations on the most advanced commands of solid modeling and tabled, as well as limit the assemblies to maximum five distinct parts assembled.
in your case having unintentionally put a wrong date in the system clock you blocked the software.
if you write to us info@lista.it we help you unlock it for a new 30-day test at the professional level or to switch to the final free version express.

for the mac and in free version there is punch shark!software.
I downloaded it: I can tell you that it works but I never deepened the use.

I didn't move the date involuntarily, and I didn't block the software at all. with the right date the software works in professional mode.
I just want to try the express...:frown:
I did...the explanation of how to pass to express there is, and it is very clear... I did not see it! :finger:
just a little note...the conversion of the license is "automatic"...I don't like much that a site puts hands in my pc... maybe it was better to download the license and install it manually. . .
but it is the least evil. looks like a great product. I'll try it out in the next few days.
Thank you.

dear lightning, it is certainly possible to manually install the license for computers disconnected from the network and from the internet with installed alibre (or on which you want to install it); You should have received an e-mail when you downloaded the software with the information on it.
that is, we try to facilitate things to those who are not practical (home user via internet) leaving room to the most experienced to proceed disconnected from the internet if considered preferable or safer (e.g. company technical offices).
In addition, we recommend that our users do only two installations immediately, so they always open the possibility to immediately and independently fire a third machine, you want automatically (just connect it to the internet), you want manually (inserting license key). the nice is that you don't have to wait for response from an operator, but you get the license key simply by entering the user account state of the mother's home site (also from a computer other than that where alibre is installed) and copying the license. if then a customer cannot connect to the internet we will ship both software and licenses. the operator's intervention is only necessary in case it needs a fourth or later position, in which case it is necessary to communicate which of the previously dismissed computers, so that this is deleted from the list and thus frees a new possibility of installation.
in conclusion it is believed in this way to immediately put the user able to do independently, without waiting for the answer of an operator, three distinct installations for each license purchased, without license pathes lost by reforming the computer or losing an evil hardware key.
welcome advice and advice to transfer to mother home technicians to improve the scheme!

about the translator, some questions:
1) is it bidirectional?
2) Does it also import features or only raw geometry?
3) is it able to import non-graphic info associated with 3d parts (codes, materials, treatments, etc)?
4) Does it matter the assemblies?
5) Does it matter the bonds together?
6) Does the boards also matter?
7) manages the jt format?

I think you can't do anything you want.
I looked at him today... I think it takes time to evaluate him.

I would have a more trivial question...
it is possible to have the background of the black table and the colored lines
instead of white with all black lines?
... is really annoying .. in the menus' I don't find options (I have vrs.11.2)
