TPF Noob!
the "photoshop versions" thread inspired me to ask you people about this. kind of a long shot, but i don't know who else to ask.
does anybody use or know someone who uses bentley microstation?
it's a cad package, but has a million other functions.
what i'm trying to find out is how the heck to learn it :?
it was given to me at college, and it seems like a lot of professional architects are seriously into it. the problem is, it's the most user-unfriendly software i've ever come across. even worse than anything on macintosh (j/k). seriously, it takes 2 bottles of tylenol just to get the snaps working the way you want.
there were a few meager attempts by my professors to teach the software to my class, but nobody caught on . i checked online, and a two-day introductory class for this software, taught by bentley, is $600 :evil:
i was all for going back to autocad, until i saw how powerful and versatile this software can be, and if professional architects use it, then i guess i'm going to have to do it. the fact is, it's extremely unintuitive, and the only way to learn it is to be taught it.
so... any thoughts?
if you can't tell, i've got a very established contempt for this program and the people who made it. any door to an easier way that you ppl can open would be awesome.
