Before using Design with CATIA V5, you need to understand the basic concepts and capabilities of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

Guide Description
3DEXPERIENCE Platform Describes the key concepts and capabilities of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, such as the Compass, 6WTags, 3DSearch, and 3DNotification.
3DEXPERIENCE Native Apps Describes the user interface and tools common to all native apps. This guide complements 3DEXPERIENCE Platform.
Product Structure Editor Enables you to navigate structures with a shared experience between a structure widget and a 3D widget. For more information, see Social and Collaborative | Product Development - Model Based | Product Structure Editor.
Relational Explorer Enables you to navigate on product structure links (from child to parent), and on classification links (from classified object to folder, and from subfolder to parent folder). For more information, see Social and Collaborative | Product Development - Model Based | Relational Explorer.
Bookmark Enables you to create and manage a hierarchical structure of folders to logically organize your folder, reference and representation objects. For more information, see Social and Collaborative | Product Development - Model Based | Bookmark
Product Structure Explore Enables you to navigate structures with an experience common to 3D Navigate. This navigation and viewing experience is made available inside different views including a tree view, a graph view, and a 3D view. For more information, see Social and Collaborative | Product Development - Model Based | Product Structure Explore
Change Management Enables a controlled, clearly-defined process for users to manage changes to objects within their organization. For more information, see Social and Collaborative | Configuration and Change Management | Change Management
Knowledge Basics Enables you to capture corporate engineering knowledge as embedded specifications allowing complete consistency. For more information, see 3D Modeling | Multi Discipline Automated Engineering | Knowledge Basics | Managing Relations | Updating Parameters of xCAD Models.
