When instructed to select a certain icon, a little screen shot of the icon is always presented, saving a lot of trips back to the early parts of the manual, simply to remind oneself what the icon looks like. The onscreen help is useful, complete with a glossary, but with fewer illustrations.
Online support is also available.
Almost any design idea can take shape in IronCAD, be edited, rendered, animated and shared with others, whether they are in engineering, analysis, machining or marketing. This is the entire purpose of CAD, and IronCAD has an ironclad grip on that concept. All rights reserved.
