All of our software
is either shareware of freeware. Shareware distribution gives users a
chance to evaluate software before buying it. Following the try-before-you-buy
concept, all of our shareware has an evaluation period during which time
you can use the software without obligation.
Many of the most common
questions users have could be solved simply by checking the application's
helpfile. If that fails, this website should be the next line of support.
Below are links to the FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) for our products.
Additional information will be added as it becomes available.
If you can't find
your answer after searching the helpfile and this website, feel free to

FAQ
Univerter
FAQ
Q: Why is Univerter
case sensitive?
A: Many of
the internationally approved units abbreviations and prefixes are specified
as case sensitive. This is necessary to distiguish m(milli) from M(mega),
for example. When looking for matches, Univerter gives precedence to
capitalization. So, "St" would be assumed to be " Stokes"
as opposed to "stere". However, "FT" would be equated
to "ft" since there are no alternate case-sensitive matches
in the default database.
Q: I don't
like your abbreviations. What can I do?
A: In addition
to the "official" abbreviation for each unit, Univerter allows
6 additional variations. You can add or modify alternate abbreviations
as you wish.
Q: Univerter
idicates that the base units of my equation/constant are 'x' when
I was expecting 'z'. What's up?
A: Univerter
determines the base units / units-group of an input by breaking it down
into the base SI units. So both modulus of elasticity and barometric
pressure would break down to "kg /(m * s^2)".

PropSheet
FAQ
Q: PropSheet
is shareware. What does that mean?
A: Shareware
distribution gives users a chance to evaluate software before buying
it. Following the try-before-you-buy concept, Propsheet has a 30-day
evaluation period during which time you can use the software without
obligation. PropSheet is presented as "What-you-see-is-what-you-get"
-- use the 30-day trial period to decide if you like it.
Q: How much
are you going to charge for updates?
A: Minor
updates will be free. Only if major improvements are made will there
be a minimal upgrade fee for registered users.
Q: I have some
really great ideas for PropSheet. Will you add them for me?
A: Maybe.
It will depend on the complexity and the potential for increasing the
future value of PropSheet.
Q: I can't
get PropSheet to work, who do I call for support?
A: Sorry,
only email support is provided.
Q: Why can't
I set density for weldment files?
A: Currently
Solid Edge itself does not allow reading the density value for a weldment
file through automation (i.e. programming). Until this is fixed in the
Solid Edge programming interface, PropSheet will ignore density values
set for weldments.
Q: Part Highlighting
is acting strange. What's up with that?
A: Part Highlighting
uses the Solid Edge programming interface to simulate manually "selecting"
all instances of a part or assembly. Due to a bug in the Solid Edge
programming interface (or in PropSheet), the highlighted selections
will often appear in the wrong locations. Since I could not pinpoint
the cause of this bug, I had two choices: remove the buggy feature,
or leave it in and caution users. I chose the latter since the feature
is still fairly useful and the bug itself is harmless.
