"...but I
suspect selection will be a real pain."

 

Maybe not ... new commands: AU, AD, AL, AR,
A45, A30, A10... Arrow commands; so we can bone up on angular coordinates and
spatial orientation such as range, distance and angle of attack.

I
heard a few things too such as:

1) Autodesk has determined that in
almost ever case when instability occurs the user was using the mouse. From
now on Inventor will be all coordinate entry. Not so bad when creating
geometry but I suspect selection will be a real pain.

2) Shape Manager
kernal has been the cause of most inabilities to create complex shapes like
lofts and drafted and filleted parts. These problems didn't exist in 2D
AutoCAD so from now on Inventor will be 2D only.

3. Due to all the user
issues with Design Assistant and file management Inventor will no longer
support saves to disk. Draw your product, print it and store the paper copy is
the new method.

4. ATI has bought up Inventor. From now on ATI cards
are the only ones that will work.

Well thats about all I heard. Anyone
have anything else?

Cheers for the info. Now all I need is Autodesk to confirm the PDM software will be include with Inv7 as I am about to upgrade our systems to Inventor from R14. I was going to upgrade our document management software to Cyco Teamworks at the same time but it looks like I could be wasting alot of money that could go on other goodies!!!

Logic would say that since they announced the acquisition just the other day
(and acquisition law usually forbid too much mingling between companies
until the final deal is done), and R7 is coming out in beta very soon there
is probably not much of the eVault in R7.

Why is anyone thinking this is going to be free?

Actually 5.3 was a MAJOR release.  While there
did not seem to be many changes on the outside, the guts of the program
(modeling engine) was completely new.

The modelling engine (Autodesk shape manager) was probably (close to)
identical to ACIS, but it DID change to a brand new name 😉

I was a beta tester for truevault and the file status tab in IV6 looks very
similar to what truevault did. Right when IV6 came out I got an email
saying that there would be no more updates for truevault. I think there is
some truevault already in IV6.

Just my two cents
