  • Get Started

    New to Inspire Studio? Learn the basics here.

  • Tutorials

    Start using Inspire Studio with our interactive tutorials.

  • Sketching

    Create and edit a 2D sketch curve. A sketch curve is any "wire" entity such as a line, rectangle, circle, or arc.

  • Curves

    Create and edit 3D curves by extending, rebuilding, intersecting, splitting, and projecting the shapes.

  • Surfaces

    Create and edit 3D surfaces and solids by creating primitives or editing existing curves and surfaces.

  • PolyNURBS

    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.

  • Modify

    Create new objects by manipulating and modifying source objects.

  • Direct

    Quickly modify objects that are not a part of Construction History.

  • Deform

    Deform one or more objects with respect to an axis.

  • Analysis

    Measure dimensions, analyze curvature, check for continuity and watertightness, analyze the draft, detect undercuts, and create design iterations on the fly.

  • Dimensions

    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.

  • Drawing

    Create detailed 2D drawings of the selected parts of a complex 3D model from multiple perspectives.

  • Rendering

    Adjust the materials, environment, and properties of objects in the scene to create a photorealistic image.

  • Animation

    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.

  • Die Design

    Create a draw die in Inspire Studio that you can export to Inspire Form to perform a stamping simulation.

  • Custom Plug-ins and Scripts

    You can use C++ and Python to add custom operations and file formats.

  • Keyboard Shortcuts and Mouse Controls

    Learn keyboard shortcuts and mouse controls for common operations.
