Civil 3D 2010 - User Interface Overview

I'm going to start blogging about some of the features of civil 3D 2010. When you start up Civil 3D 2010, a Welcome splash screen appears. On this welcome screen, there is a plethora of things that can be blogged on:

• Getting Started Movies
• User Interface Overview
• Learning Resources
• New Features Workshop
• Best Practices Guide

Today, I'm going to talk about the User Interface Overview. clicking on this brings up the help window but this window has lots of places to hover.

For example, by hovering over the number 3, information on the left-hand side will tell you that you are looking at the ribbon. If you click on the number 3, you will see an enlarged view of the ribbon.

This is a real nice addition to help the user interface newbie (which is probably most of us). Kudos to the team at Autodesk that developed this.
