I've seen Inventor but, never used it. The owner of Inventor told me he paid a very high price.
 
However, after viewing some Inventor results, I think I too would recommend you take a peek-a-boo at the program.
 
Free trial? Don't know but, you should check on AudoDesk's website.

If your going to do alot of 3D, I suggest AutoDesk Inventor. Much easier 3D interface than autocad alone. In addition, cost would play a large role in your decision. Alot of programs will do way more than you need, you might be able to find something more tailored to your need. Hope that helps.]]> Wed, 24 Mar 2010 20:16:23 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=3427&PID=9091&title=help-on-choosing-platform#9091 <![CDATA[Help on choosing platform : Hi, guys, I am autocad newbies,...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=3427&PID=9085&title=help-on-choosing-platform#9085 Author: liuxueback

Hi, guys, I am autocad newbies, I need some help on choosing the platform for my task. Basically, I want to draw a 3D picture of road pavement layers with different materials, and with a real landscape on top of it, it is like a side view of both the real world above the ground and the geology under the ground. I don't need any animations. I have researched quite a bit but it seems it is really difficult find proper examples or resource for such task. Appreciated if anyone can point me a direction.

Cheers
