What is a .DES file?
A .DES file is a type of computer file used for creating drawings and designs in both two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) forms. This kind of file is specifically made with a computer-aided design (CAD) software called Pro/DESKTOP. Pro/DESKTOP is a program often used in schools and educational settings to teach students about design and engineering principles.
When you work with a .DES file, you can create various shapes and designs. These designs can be viewed in different ways, such as wireframes, which are like the skeleton of your design, or they can be seen as transparent, allowing you to see through parts of your design. You can also view your designs with shading to give them a more three-dimensional look, or with enhanced images to make them look more realistic.
To open a .DES file, you need to have the Pro/DESKTOP software from Parametric Technology. This is the program that was used to create the .DES file, and it has the right tools to let you view and edit the designs contained in the file. Without this specific software, it might be difficult to properly access or modify the contents of a .DES file.
Verification
Our goal is to help people find the most up-to-date information about file extensions for Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS. We researched over 10,000 file extensions and their respective programs that open those files. If you want to suggest edits or updates about .DES file formats, example files, or programs that are compatible. Please contact us.
