It’s natural to adapt to the Os version style which is presumably going to last for another 5 more year or so. Here we’re referring to Microsoft product as most of the end users are using the same Os. Should it restrain itselfto the Microsoft XP operating system like workflow with some not so mordern toolbars like ‘ribbon toolbar’ etc or should it explore some new workflow like Microsoft’s new Os has adapted in its latest Windows8 version. The CAMWorks user interface also has the same dilemma as to what workflow it should adapt. If CamWorks runs independently,then also the new icons should have the ability to sport its very own style and working environment. For example, if CAMWorks is running inside Solidworks, the icons may sport the same style as that of SolidWorks and if it’s running inside Solid Edge it may adapt to the style that SolidEdge is having. Though the designs are not something like we see today but still the usecase helps us a long way understanding how the CAD/CAM user experience and interfaces works.Īs CAMWorks runs inside some other CAD products, it is better to device a style that can adapt to its working environment. Here is a POC we have done for CAMWorks years back.
