Learn the basic tools of Inspire Studio.
Learn how to sketch geometry.
Learn how to create and edit 2D surfaces, as well as 3D surfaces and solids.
Inspire Studio has some powerful deformation tools that allow you to tweak the shape of a simple primitive object or a complex surface with a few clicks. In this tutorial, we'll start with a simple cube and turn it into the temple of an eyeglass frame.
Any object in Inspire Studio can be morphed using cages. Cages can affect either the entire object or a portion of it. With PolyNURBS, you have additional control of morphing because you can apply various strengths of cages and visualize the effects.
Learn how to create polygonal surfaces that can easily be converted into NURBS surfaces. PolyNURBS combines the ease and simplicity of polygonal modeling with the precision and flexibility of NURBS, allowing you to quickly create free-form solid geometry that is smooth and continuous.
Learn how to use the analysis tools.
Learn how to use the drawing tools.
Learn how to adjust the materials, environment, and properties of objects in the scene to create a photorealistic image. In addition, learn how to create animations in Inspire Studio.
Learn how to create a draw die in Inspire Studio that you can export to Inspire Form to perform a stamping simulation.
Create and edit a 2D sketch curve. A sketch curve is any "wire" entity such as a line, rectangle, circle, or arc.
Create and edit 3D curves by extending, rebuilding, intersecting, splitting, and projecting the shapes.
Create and edit 3D surfaces and solids by creating primitives or editing existing curves and surfaces.
Create polygonal surfaces that can easily be converted into NURBS surfaces. PolyNURBS combines the ease and simplicity of polygonal modeling with the precision and flexibility of NURBS, allowing you to quickly create free-form solid geometry that is smooth and continuous.
Create new objects by manipulating and modifying source objects.
Quickly modify objects that are not a part of Construction History.
Deform one or more objects with respect to an axis.
Measure dimensions, analyze curvature, check for continuity and watertightness, analyze the draft, detect undercuts, and create design iterations on the fly.
Dimension a line, edge, bounding box, angle, and radius/diameter in order to create objects which must fit predefined dimensions. You can also insert a general annotation to label the parts of your model.
Create detailed 2D drawings of the selected parts of a complex 3D model from multiple perspectives.
Adjust the materials, environment, and properties of objects in the scene to create a photorealistic image.
In Inspire Studio you can animate an object or group and the camera. There are two methods of animation: key frame animation and path animation.
Create a draw die in Inspire Studio that you can export to Inspire Form to perform a stamping simulation.
You can use C++ and Python to add custom operations and file formats.
Learn keyboard shortcuts and mouse controls for common operations.
