This PowerPoint is written for the brand new user.  It touches on a lot of stuff you need to know before you can even begin to understand the Companions.  Stuff like

"how do I find the robots?" and

"How come there aren't any names/labels on the icons?  How am I supposed to find anything?". 

It is not an in-depth tutorial on a specific topic, but rather a starting point for those that are new to using the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. 

Topics Presented:

• Interface comparison for users of previous version of DELMIA software (D5 IGRIP and V5 Robotics)
• Comparing the two working environments.  The Design Environment and the 3D Simulation Environment
• A brief look at Dashboards and starting the 3DEXPERIENCE apps
• Making the user interface more user friendly by turning on the Status Bar prompts, App Options dialog and showing menu names as text
• How to find the robots that are delivered with the software
  • Importing 3DXML files
  • Using Catalogs

• How the DELMIA “Manufacturing Cell” correlates to a real world workcell or station
• Mounting a tool on a robot
• Programming the robot using the Immersive Browser interface
• Introduction to Tag Points and Tasks
• Using the compass and Jog panel to move the robot
• Saving your work back into a database

I'm also creating videos with commentary to go along with this.  They will be coming shortly.  

Look through it and let me know what I should improve on.  What topics have I missed that were unclear when you started using 3DEX?  What have I not explained clearly enough?  stuff like that.
