A few notes:
Because Frames made in V1.X do not store any of their creation information they are not directly compatible with many of the V2.X features.
V1.X Serial Keys are not valid for V2.X and can’t be installed side-by-side.
If you purchased V1.X Serial Keys there is a reduced price V2.X Upgrade Serial Key available.
Requirements:
Frame Builder Version 2.1 Release now only works on Alibre Design V27 (Build 27038 or Build 27039) This is because Frame Builder Version 2.1 is built using new features found in Alibre Design V27.
It also requires Alibre Script Build 343543 or newer.

Trial Serial Number:
A Trial Version can be activated which will only allow creation of 5 parts at a time. After those 5 parts are created you will need to close and restart Frame Builder. Additionally during Update / Rebuild Members the Trial version will always “Confirm Each Change Prior”. I may at any time disable the Trial Serial Number from working. The Serial Number for the Trial Version is: TRIAL-TRIAL-TRIAL-TRIAL
