'According to the "Whats new in 2015" we will be able to print or mill trasnfer jigs via 3shape. Is anyone doing this on 2014 or know if it's possible?

Appliance Designer will allow you to create an output like the one you have pictured.. It is available for 2014 users, it is a separate license from Dental System. You could probably use Splint Designer to do it as well (Although you would have to merge the bar and shell evenly). Splint Designer is included for free with Dental System 2014 v2.9.9.3 and above.
Just got thelatest build of 3shape and they have added positioning guide , but not sure how it works yet, i tried scanning a model but doesnt seem to work for designing.....
With Appliance Designer, how would you add the hole for the abutment? Also...i don't think it's possible to bring the abutment design into AD in order to set it..

You can add the hole using the attachments feature. You could finish the abutment design in Dental Designer and then "append CAD design to prep scan", then use that scan in AD. Again, this is a workaround method that came to mind for those who are not on 2015 AND have an appliance designer license, probably not an ideal workflow.
Sevan P put up a good suggestion earlier in the thread as well.

Cheap import light cured composite is fast and easy for this.
I sure don't want a competent dental designer's expensive time used making this sort of stuff.
I also don't want valuable mill or printing time used for this until it cheaper and much faster that it is now.
There are still things in the lab you can do digitally that are better served with analog work.
Hi, Thanks for the response.
Are you sure you there is the "ATTACHMENT" feature in Appliance Designer? I'm not seeing the options..
Wouldn't that depend on whats on the monitor?What separator do you recommend using on the monitor?
