This brief guide has given you the key information to start using Alias for technical surfacing tasks. We encourage you to use the on-line help and the PDF reference manuals to expand your knowledge as you gain hands-on experience with the software.
Alias functionality covers a wide range of the design and development process. Your surfacing skills will give you an excellent starting point for working on fast concept development, or modeling in different industries, such as automotive, marine, product or packaging design.
Presentation and real-time viewing of designs has become a fundamental part of the design process. Exploring Hardware Shading in Alias will add another dimension to your professional skills and provide great job satisfaction when you see your work presented at the highest quality. If you work in a large organization, you may want to look at the functionality of Autodesk's Showcase product which integrates with Alias to provide full design review support.
We hope this booklet helps you overcome the inevitable frustrations of learning a new software package, and that you go on to enjoy developing your technical and creative expertise with Alias.
