WHEN I search and open Catia the CMD opens and Catia dont ,but i can see in task manager using 5 percent cpu

I'm from a SW background and make quite a bit of use of configurations. How does 3DX CATIA deal with configurations? Is it a similar approach, or something different? Also, are there any resources to learn more about configs in CATIA?

Im working on fasteners for a 10 seater bussiness jet program, gathering all the fastener data and models to integrate it with Aircraft assembly.

I got to know 3d experience has part supply modile through which we can directly download and integrate fasteners into aircraft assembly..

The problem is im not able to see any aerospace std. Fasteners in part supply, which module/role i have to purchase in 3d experience to access those fasterners?

Siemens NX, Catia, Solid Works, ICEM Surf or Rhino?
hi I’m not an engineer. I want to model and 3D print (people said non‑CADs don’t give a good quality surface), but I found that engineering software is also very good. Maybe later I wanted to do it seriously. I am not focused on a specific thing. I want a versatile and vast software but good for 3D print (real world) and capable of big detailed things.
I want to model things like
spaceships, cars, robots, buildings (Zaha Hadid type), facades, organic things, normal objects, human body and face, animals, node-based modeling… (everything)
pls answer detailed and updated if you have time and consider plugins. and if there is another software, please say. thanks

Hello friends, does anyone have an idea about this issue with CATIA V5-6R2019? The installation goes well, but when I want to open CATIA, it only opens in the background and does not appear on the screen. Is there a solution here or not? Please help me, I am struggling with my graduation project!

I already have a good foundation in SolidWorks, so I'm not new to CAD. I'm switching to CATIA V5 and I want to learn it the way professionals actually use it.

If you were in my position, what YouTube playlist, course, or free resource would you choose? I'm not looking for random beginner tutorials—I want something that teaches proper workflow and industry practices.

If you had to start over today with my background, what would you watch, in what order, and what would you practice?

Any underrated channels, PDFs, documentation, or project-based resources are also welcome. Thanks!

Looking for a part time remote catia V5/V6 jobs.

The picture shows how it looks like at the moment after using \"Multi-Sections Surface\" in GSD

I am designing a propeller and I am having a hard time smoothly connect the first airfoil profile to the propeller blade hub. Please if anyone has any idea on how is done (smoothly), can you help me ? thank you so much.

1. Free (or paid) viewer for CATPart / STEP / IGES?

Okay I need to vent a little.

The 3D viewer I'm currently using is honestly the worst tool I've ever used for model checking. Measurements are unreliable enough that I always end up double-checking critical dimensions back in CATIA anyway — which defeats the whole point.

Looking for something that can:

• Open CATPart, STEP, and IGES files
• Measure accurately — like actually accurately
• Has proper section tools
• Doesn't lag on large assemblies

Free is preferred but if a paid option is genuinely worth it I'm open to hearing about it.

What are you guys actually using day to day?

2. CATIA V5 and 3DEXPERIENCE on separate machines?

Our company license includes both CATIA V5 and 3DEXPERIENCE. We're only on V5 right now. we are not using 3DEXPERIENCE.

Can V5 run on one machine and 3DEXPERIENCE on a separate machine simultaneously under the same license? Or are both locked to a single user?

Want to set up another workstation but need to sort out the licensing first.

Thanks! 🙏

Hey all, 3DX beginner here. If I'm exploring a large assembly, is there way to quickly search the product tree? It can be hard to expand everything and look for parts when there's thousands of them.

Thanks!
