I am enjoying this forum.
I am using Atom 3D 6 months Free Licence through cnccookbook website.
I tried Freecad before looking at Alibre. Found the Freecad learning curve very steep, unintuitive interface and the tutorials badly written.
So far have found the interface much easier and the tutorials make sense.
Most of the threads on this forum are for users of the more expensive professional versions of Alibre. I can understand and respect that and enjoy reading them.
A question specifically for Atom 3D users. The Tutorial shows various zoom, select, rotate etc options using a conventional mouse. But I like I suspect many 3D users use a laptop with a trackpad. Could we have some explanations of the operations using a trackpad instead of a mouse.
Keep up the good work, colleagues
