Michael...just want to remind you..because Pro/E is there..so Solidworks was able to simplify itself...eveything in solidworks is a copy of Pro/E....and made better.
Sorry i have to say this...but you keep talking about clicks and mouse travel...
try to use pro/e the pro/e way..otherwise you would always find issues with pro/e...
Solidworks was made to be easier to use..and they have done well..there is it where the comparison ends.
