To familiarize yourself with Alias, we recommend you read the Getting Started guide and watch the six short Essential Skills Movies (available from Help
Essential Skills) before reading this guide.
The Learning Alias Tutorials teach you some of the Alias philosophies, so it is worth while for you to review these tutorials.
The Online Documentation (HelpAlias Help) is also a great source of information which is worth getting familiar with. It is linked up with the Alias product to provide you with context-sensitive information about tool and menu options.
The Autodesk community website provides great information to get up to speed: go to http://mosaic.autodesk.com/autodeskalias.
