Hi,

Is there a quick video to send to non Onshape users so they can easily learn the UI?
Mobile and desktop.

Thanks

    There's this web guide for desktop:
    https://learn.onshape.com/learn/article/navigating-onshape-for-new-users

    I couldn't quickly find a short video. 

    Are these users going to have accounts or is this literally for non-users (i.e. using Link sharing)?

    If they'll have an account, there's this learning center path:

    The Navigating Onshape course is great.

    Also, Unit 1 of Intro to CAD does a good job of learning the UI.

    Both are in the Learning Center.

    I made this video for that purpose. It could probably use an update now that publications are out there and there are other things to look at like FEA and appearances. Let me know if something like this is useful, and if I re-create it, what should I add/remove/change?

    Thanks guys!

    @Evan_Reese - This is great, thank you. I think Onshape should make an official one. Important.

    Agreed! Ideally it would be compact, somewhere between fun and professional, without an AI narrator, and always up-to-date from the same URL so I can share it once and client's and people can always find the latest.

    Maybe in the sharing popup page you can check an option to send a link to the video as well. So it all comes together.

    How about a button next to "home" in the view only toolbar?
