solidThinking Evolve 9.5

solidThinking has recently released Evolve 9.5. The new version lets users work in the most natural and unrestricted fashion yet, enabling faster creation of complex products.

"solidThinking Evolve has been enhanced with tools to simplify geometry creation and make editing more intuitive," commented Darren Chilton, Program Manager for solidThinking Evolve. "Plus the unique ConstructionTree history feature is now stronger and more elegantly presented. In this release, not only have we maintained our ongoing support to users on OS X, but we have also added a new 64-bit Windows version that maximizes efficiency in managing large files."

solidThinking Evolve allows industrial designers to develop forms faster, using either a Windows PC or Mac. Evolve captures an initial sketch, then allows exploration of styling alternatives and the visualization of products with high quality renderings generated in real time.

It combines the modeling freedom of organic surfaces and the control of parametric solids with a unique ConstructionTree history feature. Evolve releases designers from the constraints of engineering-oriented CAD tools, while allowing the export of digital models required by others in the product development process.

New Features

Improved Windows Support - New 64-bit Windows support maximizes efficiency in managing large files (a 32-bit Windows version is also available).
Greater Modeling Control - All new Sweep and Blend Curve tools provide greater modeling control and an easier workflow.
Superior Geometry Creation and Editing - New selection aids such as pre-highlighting, micro-dialogs, and direct hull selection simplify geometry creation and make editing more intuitive.
Enhanced ConstructionTree - The construction history is now more visually refined and robust.
Localized Language Support - Chinese, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese and Spanish are now supported.
