    Preview picture of drawing files?

    Just fired up Ver 25 for the first time and noticed that when looking through my drawing folders to find drawing files, the preview picture of the selected drawing file is represented as a generic ico and not the actual drawing. I have to load the drawing file then close the file and go back to...

    Recent Files thumb nails

    Just a thought concerning the "Recent Files - thumb nails"; is it possible to add a delete button to that screen. Once the space is filled and another drawing is opened, the oldest thumb nail is lost. I would like to be able to control which thumb nails are dropped once the space is full or be...

    What is the correct working version of Alibre?

    I am currently running V23 (23036). Is this the released update replacing V22 or is it still a Beta version of V23?.

    Just curious, unless I have missed something, what is the status of the graphic thread representation feature that was going to be offered in the V21 package?

    Visual spur gear rotation V21

    This issue maybe related to the bug in release V21. I did not notice this behavior in the Beta Version. Playing with V21 and constraining two spur gears together in an assembly and then manually rotating them after completing the restraint process, the visual rotation presentation is erratic...

    External Thread Tool

    External Thread Tool (V11) Unknown if this is a bug, a programming oversight or expected behavior. The “External Thread” tool will not function when applied to an external cylindrical surface with a boss extending from the ends. I was attempting to draw a plug incorporating a 3/4-16 x 11/16...

    Using a fillet type command to apply shape to an edge/face

    Using a fillet type command to apply shape to an edge/face I build things from wood (i.e. clocks, tables, picture frames, etc.). I use Alibre Design Professional to design my projects before I attempt to build them. A common practice in woodworking is that of creating complex shapes on a face...
