Hi Pilou,

> What avoid you to save files in any export format on your computer ?

Exporting objects it's not the same thing of saving them in the native format, and this is true for any software in the world.

Nice day :)

Sure but it's an ultimate save safe in case of! ;)

Hi Jimmybuckets
I'm not sure if this helps but simlab does mechanical simulation and explode views of assemblies.

Thanks folks. I will check out the suggestions. MOI has been such a great tool for me. one of the only CAD softwares I have been able to do just about anything I want to with. There is a ton I don't know how to do with it, which is shameful since I have been using it since v1, but trying to learn other software in my very limited spare time, just ends me up frustrated and back using MOI.

Sebastian, you certainly make a good point.

Still, for now, Onshape for me is a necessity as sometimes there's no other way to create some of the difficult fillets quickly in Moi. Perhaps someday with a new kernel...

Also, in the case of both Fusion and Onshape, I would suggest the Fremium model will not go away anytime soon. Both know that SolidWorks owns the CAD space and it's important for them to have users to stay relevant. Also, it costs both companies very little to provide free tools for hobbyists, all the time knowing they may be in a position to affect a purchase decision at some time in the future.

In my mind, the risk versus reward is a non-issue.
