My background is Automotive dies.
I've been using Studio for the last eight years and was always exited for updates so when Design X was released i jumped right in to the new software . Unfortunately it didn't take long to realize the "exact surfacing" mode falls way short of the previous versions of Studio. They've left a lot of the tools from Studio out of Design X like sharpening wizard ,patch editing, polygon editing......ect ect.
I still try to use Design X for my simpler drawings like 2D to 3D punches but any of my forms that have some tight tolerances I stopped attempting to complete them in Design X.
I still save out my surfaces from Studio and finish the cad in Solidworks.
Geomagic no longer sells Studio so if anyone if looking for a software that you need an exact surface on your forms you may look else were until they can improve on the Design X.
Hopefully they will improve Design X in the future.
Transition from Studio to Design X....Design X falls short!!

I thought that Geomagic Wrap was the same toolset as Studio. Have you tried that package?Geomagic no longer sells Studio so if anyone if looking for a software that you need an exact surface on your forms you may look else were until they can improve on the Design X.
