Cobalt + Graphite1-Year Subscription gives designers, engineers, and inventors a completely integrated set of tools for 2D/3D sketching, concept development, visualization, photo- realistic rendering, and precision engineering drawings. Cobalt + Graphite's unique hybrid solid and surface modeling brings unmatched flexibility, power, and accuracy, while its associativity and history-tree allow for easy design exploration and fast engineering changes.
Cobalt + Graphite's on-demand parametrics make creating variations on an idea faster than ever before. The unique Ashlar-Vellum interface makes Cobalt + Graphite the easiest to use of any 3D modeler. Now you've got the creativity to design any shape imaginable, the flexibility to approach the problem any way you choose, and the power to get the job done fast. Cobalt + Graphite gives you the tools to set yourself apart from the pack and establish your unique design identity.
Cobalt + Graphite includes a courtesy license to Graphite for easy management of legacy Vellum files. It also comes with the Ashlar-Vellum mechanical parts library of 97,000 nuts, bolts, washers, pins, locknuts, retaining rings, rivets, and bearings. All parts are precise 3D solid model representations provided in ANSI, BS, ISO, JIS, and NF standards.

I’m working commonly with AutoCAD and sometimes with Pro/ENGINEER.
I downloaded the trial version with the intention to test the hybrid 3D solid and surface modeling (this ability interests me) announced in brief in your product introduction.
Because of my work, I didn’t have enough time to achieve this goal and the time allocated for the trial test has expired too quickly. I didn't re-download the program. I suggest you an amendment of the philosophy of trial to offer a longer time for testing. The reason is that a correct testing of a program with the complexity of Cobalt claims more then the actual duration.
However, between my daily tasks I performed same constructions in 3D solid version and I appreciated momentarily the comfort of the program interface use.

Its an excelent design tool from concepts and development of final pieces.
I think Cobalt need more formats to export and import documents of design.
In Guadalajara, and in the Universiti of Guadalajara whit the alumny I use Cobalt and I´m happy.
I have used Ashlar Cobalt, which comes with a 15 days trial, to try to model a building of historic interest.
I needed to find CAD software to create a 3D model starting from field data and a point cloud. The most difficult modeling problem was the irregular vaulted ceiling. Furthermore, I needed to produce several planar views and sections.
In addition to the challenging requirements, it has been exciting for me to have the chance to learn the software and build the 3D model within the 15 days trial period. I even had the time to create a few renderings of the building!
I believe that Cobalt is a very powerful product and I recommend it even for simpler projects. I am looking forward to purchase a full version of it.
