I see quite a few blogs out there on AutoCad/Alias and ICEM. I am sure that no part of ICEM will make its way into the SolidWorks platform! I am not sure that CB PRO is what SolidWorks needs in the form of surfacing tools? Personally, I would like to see SolidWorks buy somebody like Rhino (which they could buy for a song and a dance) and incorporate the product directly into SolidWorks. WOW! Would not that be nice? For now, we can just keeping wishing!
It seems that Surfacing is hardly ever spoken/written about? For some of us, surfacing capabilities are very important. I must say, SolidWorks has a long way to go on improving their surfacing capabilities. Look at Rhino, VX and others. Their surfacing "crushes" SolidWorks! Would like to hear more about surfacing and would be very interested in knowing what future plans SolidWorks has for surfacing?
