# Parametric Designing

Simulations like installation or motion studies show you how the object designed will behave in practical use - too late in many cases, however, i.e. when the design phase is completed. SISCAD-P provides such simulations at a much earlier state so that correction work is reduced to a minimum which, in turn, will help you to save time and funds.

- Continuity
  SISCAD-P takes your sketch as a given fact, i.e. as a basis for further processing. As a consequence, you will not have to input the same data again.

- Motional
  With SISCAD-P you can carry out simulations like installation or collision studies as early as in the drafting phase. To animate the geometry just change the variables or measures repeatedly by a defined value. You can even store the images of the individual steps so that you get an impression of the motion of the object designed.

- WYSIWYG - (What You See Is What You Get)
  When creating an object with SISCAD-P you virtually see the possible result so that modifications can be made at an early stage. You will never have to discard the result of a day's work only because you find out too late that you went the wrong way.

- Attentive
  Individual menu guidance is a standard for SISCAD-P. Depending on the object you are working on, SISCAD-P will offer you the CAD commands you used most recently so that you won't need to select the next command from complex menus.

- Parametrical
  The efficient application of the parametric design method is guaranteed by the possibility of storing relative positions in terms of parallelism or concentricity. Optimum adaptation to the prevailing boundary conditions, of course, is possible at any time.

- Efficient
  The potential of increasing efficiency through CAD is mainly based on flexible modification and variant construction modes. SISCAD-P's parametric design method supplies you with the most efficient tool to use this potential.
