Here at GrabCAD, we believe knowledge is power – so we’ve decided to empower you by adding some really cool new tutorials features to make GrabCAD Community even better! We’ve totally redesigned the Tutorials page to make it mobile responsive and easier to navigate. These improved features also make it easier to find, search, and create tutorials. We’ve added a new search bar to help you find exactly what you’re looking for. And to take the guess work out of what a tutorial will help you to create, we’ve added thumbnails so you can see just what the finished model will look like.
Thumbnails
By adding thumbnails to the tutorials, you’ll know exactly what the finished model is expected to look like (see below). We also added the ability to show your skill level and write a short description explaining some key techniques you’ll learn by completing the featured tutorial. This way you can be sure you’re not biting off more than you can chew or wasting your time on a model you might not be interested in completing.
Improved Browsing
Now searching for tutorials is easier than ever! You can filter your search just like the Library (see below). We added the ability to filter the Category as well as software to help find exactly what you’re looking for. That way you can find a tutorial quicker and follow along with each step knowing it came from software you’re familiar with. We didn’t stop there. We also added filters that allow you to search for the most liked, viewed, and commented tutorials to keep up with the latest trending material on GrabCAD Community.
We hope you like the new features as much as we enjoyed developing them. We think these key features are going to really help you gain the information you need to become a better designer. In the meantime, we hope you check it out, send us some feedback, and keep creating!
