This is becoming a "what software is best thread", we have given examples of 3D CAD that can do the exploded view as illustrated in post 1 (Solid works, Inventor and last and certainly least CREO)... Lets not start pulling the various packages to bits, we can all do that because we all have our own views and experience, because I know a lot of SolidWork users and have used it myself and have not had the problems mentioned above, whereas when trying to interface ECAM and MCAD CREA is the dogs... So as you see it works all ways so lets just stick to generic advice and keep personal views on software to ourselves....
The above points were to illustrate the fact that we all have some negative views on software we don't use regularly, me I despise all ECAD and MCAD packages, having spent 30+ years sat in front of them, some back drafting machines and pens, tape and scalpels, Luddites unite!:smile:
