Stewart, It is too bad I am unemployed at the moment. When you pull down SolidWorks' Help menu and select About SolidWorks, you get a list of all the copyrights from their subcontractors. Somebody starts a company. They write some graphics processing code. They license it to SolidWorks. They set up a post office box for SolidWorks to send cheques to. There arew a whole lot of them.
