Find them after 3 days !!

Do you mind sharing the schedule/agenda?

I take a peek at the speaker list, and notice quite a number of speakers is from DS and 3DX..

I sat for my SWCP exam at SWW 2019 and passed with a decent grade

The question I have to ask is, how much value is there really in a SWCP?

Thanks

There is one if you click on the link on the right side, you might need to scroll down to see it.

What's great about this whole The Solidwoks Largest User Group Meeting Ever is just how much Solidworks they did NOT show. That the continued aspect of "Hey we're just gonna just continue to shove 3DXP down your throats whether you like it or not" is still going strong. I don't think there was one example shown in Solidworks native.

LE SIGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Agree.. i take a quick view at the recording and is really disappointed...
I am wondering why it is called Solidwoks Largest User Group Meeting Ever, when almost everything is 3DX

Holy moly.

Really?

My, this has certainly gotten watered down.

Pretty much answers my question.

I think people only showed up for the free exams. I scanned the over 6 hours of content and DesktopWorks only gets a brief few minutes in the beginning then it quickly goes to 3DX.

They just need to call this a 3DX User group and leave the DesktopWorks users group alone. But then I guess they would have few show up. This is not relevant to 90% of the user base and for us never will be. Someone tell me how 3dX can work with our Windchill PLM system?

Do you really expect it to work with Windchill in the first place? It is already having trouble to work on its own

Speaking about Windchill, just a few years ago, i always thought that Windchill and CREO had a bad and confusing interface... but this 3DX/ SWYMP / whatever it is called is wayyyy worse.

Windchill is a beast and has it problems., especially dealing with CAD files. As for the 3dx site....there is the user community then there are the applications. The community interface stinks, just doesn't work as a forum. When we evaluated Enovia / 3dx as a PLM tool, in generally we liked the UI better than Windchill. WC won for reasons that turned out not be valid in the end.
