Learning Quindos.

This question has probably been asked a million times already, but lets make it a million and 1. When I learned PC-DMIS a couple of decades ago, there was an endless supply of learning material to learn from. Also, there were other programmers at my job that helped. Unfortunately I am in a situation to where I need to learn Quindos for the new job I am at and there I really nothing out there. Even YouTube University has nothing. The 5 other people at my new job all know a little bit, but are learning as well. The so-called guru is now employed but comes every few months for a couple of days per his contract. Anyways, is there any other resources out there that I can use? I Hexagon has training classes, but there basic level 1 class really doesnt show anything, and my work probably wont pay for another trip. the only thing I have is a manual that looks extremely old and doesnt look very user friendly. Any help would do..thanks a bunch.
  • Unfortunately not. The real issue is that Quindos is so open, that there really isn't any "right" way to go about anything. What I did, after getting started was to activate the command "SET" (equivalent to F5 in PC-DMIS), and one of the options allows display of all quindos commands, obsolete or not. Then, just browse the library. I have yet to come across any task that makes mathematical sense that could not be accomplished in Quindos, and do some pretty elaborate things.
  • Sorry Dan. Quindos has been a "conceptual" Software from day one, way back when in the 80s. By conceptual, I mean, if you understand the concept (e.g. Database structure, Object types etc.) of the software, then the rest is generally intuitive & you can work miracles. Take the jump & do a training class!
  • Company sent me and another engineer (im not a engineer by trade but i have been programming in pcdmis for over 20 years) to the Quindos Level 1 training but they really dont teach you much. They offered to customize a training class for us, but problem is, is that we cant talk about any of our work or bring any of our drawings as samples. Even if we redact the crap out of it.
