Atom capabilities

Miles - since Atom3D only has ONE of the options for splines, the comparison list you refer to is not wrong. Atom does not have the 'additional spline types'. The list matches what is on the main Alibre.com comparison page - I think the intent was not to 'over-claim' for Atom3D.
With a complex product like 3D CAD, it's difficult to produce a comprehensive comparison list that doesn't become enormous. I frequently have to launch the software to check finer detail as some items are not explicitly mentioned in the comparison and the availability of some has changed over time.

Hi David. I was referring to this PDF comparison https://www.mintronics.co.uk/alibre-atom3d-comparison Which gives all the Spline types and shows that none are available in Atom. From my memory, I thought that was wrong, which is why I checked here. Maybe the best place for a comprehensive list would be in the Help system? Or here on the forum?
Keeping a fully detailed list updated and accurate is not a trivial task (as that list shows - some other lines are out of date vs the most recent tweaks to Atom).
Comparison charts should be a first pass to identify which product level - or maybe to narrow things down to a choice of 2. Then either ask specific questions or take a product trial to check the fine detail. Your reseller, or Alibre Support should be able to assist with detail queries.
Yes insert image is supported in 2D drawings in Atom3D
Though not their main purpose, the training videos for Atom3D show the available icons on the Ribbons (though some of them are slightly outdated now).
