Update: A point of clarification! Workbenches are not new to V6. Which is much like any tool… in any CAD program… that has ever existed. Make sense? The term “Workbench” isn’t the best, but makes sense after using it. CATIA is a portfolio of products, all accessible within the same user interface (assuming you buy all of the workbenches!) But to you and I, they are just functions we access from the same interface. In actuality, they’re all separate products developed at Microsoft HQ. In Word you’ve got a thousand separate products, all available within the pull down menu or ribbon interface: Spellcheck, Font & Paragraph, Mail Merge/Mailing, Track Changes, etc. Still a bit confused? Let’s try an analogy. Dassault wants people to understand that the switch between products is all done within the same user interface. This is where the idea of a “Workbench” comes into play. It’s been created to streamline the switch between products – the idea being a more simple, more efficient and easy to use interface. In reality, each of these workbenches are all separate “products.” The magic is the V6 user interface.
