Pro/ENGINEER ease of use, the search function and exploded view
As the weeks progress in using Pro/E Wildfire 5.0, i am impressed at the ease of use of the program itself. Just getting the parts required for the assembly can be a nightmare for some engineers since they sometimes are working in more than one project in the same directory with about 5 other files types of the same model.
