Autodesk Inventor 2015 What's New

[sholmes]

I know that the last few releases of the new version of Inventor have been towards the end of March timeframe - does anybody remember how much before that they release the What's New documentation? Also, is there any info on when the beta tester NDA is lifted - they're allowed to talk about it?

Just curious and excited to see what they've got in store for 2015. It'd be nice to see what our investment is bringing us!

The PDF version has, but his is the first AKN(?) version I've seen.

Hi Janna,

Just to clarify, does this apply to customers who are on subscription to Ultimate as of version 2014 only, or does this also include Premium subscribers who are going to become Ultimate subscribers in version 2015 due to the restructuring of the suites?

Thanks

Hi everyone, Sorry for any confusion. Here's a more expanded description:

Access to Showcase 2015 will be provided to Product Design Suite (Premium or Ultimate) 2015 customers who have a current subscription. Customers on earlier versions of PrDS who are current on subscription will be able to get access to it via their subscription benefits (if your tier had Showcase, you'll still be able to get it).

Access to Alias 2015 will be provided to Product Design Suite (Ultimate only) 2015 customers who have a current subscription.  The same logic applies as above to customers on earlier versions of PrDS with a current subscription.

Let me know if you have a different question, and I'll be happy to clarify.

Thanks

Janna

@schuete Not to sound rude, but are you an AutoDesk employee? You don't have the A next to your name and I haven't seen you post here before, but your post implies that you are. Could you clarify, please?

Hi Scott, the answer is yes, provided that the user is on subscription.

Not that Janna's word isn't enough, but it looks like they added mentions of Showcase and Alias to the "Included Software" page for PDS: http://www.autodesk.com/suites/product-design-suite/included-software

it is a top secret or I presume they have not improved the multithreading... very sad, time is money....
