Hello good people,
I would be greatful if anybody could calrify to me

what are the differences between those 3?

I used Flotherm and FloEFD so I know the basics like the way Flotherm captures geometry, or that I can do rotation in FloEFD and all the stuff from the tutorials. It looks to me that FlothermXT is an advanced version of Flotherm, but it would be surprising if Mentor would still work on Flotherm in case Flotherm XT was just better, so I am wondering if you could name any cases where flotherm can do better than Flotherm XT.
The same thing applies to FloEFD vs Flotherm (XT), is there something Flotherm XT can do that FloEFD (with i.e. electronics/led extension) cannot?

I could only think of interfaces between EDA software and Mentor - it looks like FloEFD wouldn't work so seamlessly with Altium, or Xpedition, am I right? Oh yah, and meshing is different in Flotherm, it is quicker I got used to it
So, why would anybody buy FLEXX license, which gives you Flotherm and Flotherm XT whereas Flotherm XT is just better?
