Thanks, VTN

There are hundreds of customer-focused enhancements in SOLIDWORKS 2016, but the first thing you might notice is the new user interface (UI) that was designed with one goal in mind: to make you more productive.

The newly designed SOLIDWORKS 2016 UI offers:

• Breadcrumbs for convenient access to any model level without needing the Feature Tree
• A consistent look and feel across all SOLIDWORKS products so you can easily switch tools
• New section cuts that highlight mating issues for the control knob; and the breadcrumb tool allows fast selection of the problem mate so you can easily modify it
• The ability to easily select underlying features, such as sketches, and edit them from the cursor
• Simplified mate selections; just apply transparency to the body defined in the mate
• Auto size selection lists for immediate access to all selections
• A streamlined workflow with the confirmation toolbar at the cursor for quick modification of any level of a model
