Product Description
The purpose of this tutorial is to introduce users to some of the more advanced features, commands, and functions in Pro/ENGINEER. The style and approach of the previous Tutorial have been maintained. Each lesson concentrates on a few of the major topics and the text attempts to explain the "Why's" of the commands in addition to a concise step-by-step description of new command sequences. Familiarity with the basic operation of Pro/ENGINEER is assumed, and material presented in the previous tutorial is taken for granted. In a few places in the Tutorial, those commands are reviewed to put the discussion in context with the extensions and options presented in this book.

4 out of 5 stars A Goodun   March 23, 2005

This is the perfect book to get up to speed with the advanced features of pro eng. I totally disagree with Mr Bruce Lee's comments. Looking at some of the bad reviews of this book, I seriously think that some of these are written to make other books look and sell better. Trust me, I have nothing to gain by writing this but just wanted to point out that it is an excellent tutorial. Don't listen to the negative reviews...this book is a goodun!!


2 out of 5 stars Very Vague and too wordy   August 2, 2004

The book is another bad book from Roger Toogood. This will be the last time that I make this mistake!!! Does anyone want a book for free? The exercises are very poor. The book is poorly written and the graphic quality is ......... The book is very confusing and vague for the new user. I wonder about the advance user? After reading the book, I still do not understand Wildfire. The book is too wordy and is very vague. I am very surprise that he is selling books. I agree with one reviewer who wrote, "Its ludicrous to expect someone to read 3-4 pages to get to know something simple like modifying feature dimensions or setting references".

I had used Pro/E version 20 for over 4 years when I switched to Wildfire. This book has greatly helped me find where things are in Wildfire (because they have moved things around so much), as well as learn a few things that I had never done in version 20, such as creating parts in Family Tables, assembly drawings with Repeat Regions and automated BOMs, etc. What I like about the book is that it is very clearly written, and gives you instructions step by step: "click on this", then "click on that", and so on. It has example exercises, and lots of graphics and pictures to help you along. Great book!
