Is it possible to use Solid Edge as a Viewer? If so, how to enable the API for this?
Solution
If you start Solid Edge without any license and go through the license wizard you can start Solid Edge
as a Viewer that is able to View & Measure in 2D and 3D.
To have the API enabled you will need a purchased product with Maintenance, for example SE352 - Solid Edge 2D Drafting with Maintenance.
