I installed my power pack 10 for viacad pro 10- but there is no menu option under power pack mesh for mesh to analytics or mesh to nurbs.

Am I doing something wrong?

I bought the power pack specifically to convert sketch to via cad solids, did I mis read something?

After reading the forums on how to convert sketchup to viacad I learned that I needed powerpack pro-- but I actually did not realize this was not on the punchcad.com website. What I bought was powerpack, not power pack pro.

Which the only reason I bought it was to convert sketchup models into solids. Then I spent another 20 minutes reading other forum posts and found a link for the powerpack and it seems to be saying I need to spend another $299 to upgrade from powerpack to powerpack pro. That is more than the actual cad program.

I have no idea what the powerpack will be useful to me for then as I do not print 3d models.

I simply do not have $299 just so I can convert sketchup files to viacad.

I dont know what to say as I love the viacad system, but this has really thrown a wet blanket on my enthusiasm about my purchase.

I wish that there was a clear and concise guide to the power pack version purchasing so I could have known from step one which powerpack and what it cost was. Instead the only offer on the website just offered a bundle of powerpack. Which I bought thinking it was a the actual ro version. My ignorance I guess.

I did that.

And no the power pack pro tools did not appear. I think I still got a wonderful deal for the cad system which is awesome. I was just upset at how confused I was on the power pack options.

Why is power pack pro on masterviacad.com and not on the main punchcad.com store as an option?
