AutoDesSys FormZ is a 3D modeling application that incorporates drafting and rendering. It's the perfect tool for architects, landscape architects, engineers, product and interior designers, illustrators, and animators, whether they are mature users or novices. FormZ combines solids and surface modeling so users can create any form, real or imaginary. The highly interactive interface allows the user to generate objects graphically by using the mouse, through numeric input through the keyboard, or by mixing methods. Join Professor C. William Fox as he helps you to get the most out of this application. You can begin learning from this Virtual Training Company Tutorial right now by simply clicking on one of the links below.
