Publisher's description

From J & L :

ActiveSolid is a 3D solid modeling, prototyping, and view mark-up application. It runs in either of two modes: as an Internet Explorer plug-in or as a standalone end-user application. It features an intuitive GUI, import/export plug-in architecture (with free Import/Export plug-ins downloadable from ActiveSolid's home page), associative 3D dimensions, robust Boolean operations on 3D meshes and 2D polygons, 3D slicing, polygon offset, automatic house/roof/wall creation, local vertex/face editing, optimal solid reconstruction from parallel contours, 2D mark-up tools, and an array of other powerful 3D object creation tools. Supported file formats include STL, DXF, Q3BSP, XGL and various 2D bitmap formats.

Version 1.6.3 adds the powerful Extrude Path tool for extruding a cross section (a polygon or a planar polyline) along a 3D polyline path to create a 3D solid mesh.

Pros: If you are looking for a low-cost, but no non-sense 3D modeling and view mark up program, this one won't disappoint you.

Cons: No undo/redo

"Great 3D modeling program"

by Nancy Zhao on May 13, 2006

Pros: Easy to use with quite extensive modeling options and it is cheap.

Cons: Online Help improved, but still leaves much to desire.
