Hi there SP,

"Boolean" is the widely accepted descriptive term for 3D subtraction / addition / intersection. You might not be familiar with it, but it doesn't get more descriptive than that. This isn't an obscure allegory, it comes straight from Algebra.

"Noun" and "verb" are terms that are nowhere to be found in MOI. While the aim of the author of the software is indeed ease of use through UX, as far as I know he isn't relying on any such euphemisms. As a matter of fact I too tend to think that using proxy words trying to make a concept seem "easier to understand" only ends up being counter-productive. I see that the author of the video course/OP of this thread is using such "proxy" terms, but that's just his own decision and teaching style. And while I do find it annoying (and someone counter-productive and even unintentionally condescending, as if the audience wasn't smart enough to grasp concepts without resorting to a language allegory), it can easily be ignored.

If anything you might get some relevant suggestions by simply showing examples of the type of designs you are talking about. Some people are always going to pretend that "a tool is just a tool" and that the software doesn't matter, but it is absolutely true that badly designed tools can slow down ones workflow.

In general I'd say that if your need is raw 2D and 3D CAD with very straightforward input and great speed of execution, MOI will be perfect for you. IMHO it is the best option out there, it really is THAT good. However if you need any form of non-destructive modeling you'd have to look elsewhere as this isn't the focus of MOI at all and you'll be constantly in need of workarounds. MOI also doesn't have any concept of 2D constraints.

However, while these missing features (non destructive 3D operations and 2D constraints) might sound like a deal breaker, the speed of operation allowed by MOI far makes up for it.

As for getting a feel for it : there really is no point in waiting for any future version - just get the current trial and make up your mind that way. If you have any basic knowledge of CAD you'll be able to pick up the basics in about a weekend or two.

This comes from someone who is attempting to sell some designs too, BTW :) Congratulations on your success !

To the OP : really sad to hear about the voiceover being rejected. Perhaps Udemy can allow it as a special exception (if you are still interested in having it there, that is). Thanks for the effort and for sharing it !
