Thanks for the reply. I've been using AME to create objects, but it's limited in some of its fillet capabilities (IE: Can't fillet the top edge of a filleted edge thats at an angle). I've got Designer but it does not do the intelligent edge visibility like AME (or 3D Studio) does. When you convert it to a mesh, its all 3DFaces with all edges showing. I'm creating complex bathroom fixtures and the number of faces can easily reach 3000+. To turn the edge visibility on/off correctly would take me many hours per symbol. I guess what I'm looking for is a great modeling package for graphic artists and not mechanical engineers. I don't need: Moments of Interia, Center of Gravity, Cross Section, etc. I just need accurate looking symbols. Any ideas would GREATLY be appreciated!
