HIGHLIGHTS OF ARC+ 2009 Edition
J Management of Changes in 2D output
□ New possibility to merge the changes done on a 2D file, to the same file, after future regeneration by the Cameras and Section Manager, or by manual 2D capture.
□ New tools are available to manage the content of 2D files generated from a captured view of the 3D model. Full control is available for the added fix components of the file and the part to be regenerated automatically, following changes in the central model.
□ Freedom of choice to activate or not the automatic merge of changes to the 2D files.
New automatic process for the Production of 2D output
□ New possibility to automatically clip all lines in the 2D files, generated by the Cameras Manager, by 2D library symbols and polygons.
□ New tools are available to manage the Automatic Clip Mode in 2D files generated from a captured view of the 3D model.
□ New option to pre-define polygons which are dedicated for internal or external automatic clipping in 2D files.
□ Possibility to control the automatic clipping in advance, before generating the 2D file.
□ Freedom of choice to activate or not the automatic clip in the generated 2D files.
New order for Images and Lines
□ New possibility to define the visualization/printer order between one image and lines. it allows to define one image to cover all vector entities overlapped. It works also with Images that have alpha channel (\imgorder)
Real True Type Texts
□ Smooth high-quality True Type font text, in 2D and in 3D axonometric views.
□ High quality printing of True Type texts.
□ Display of drawings with TTF texts is now significantly faster!
J New Concept for DSG page
□ The DSG page now indicate the real paper size.
□ User can define the DSG page from the print dialog to set the paper size, orientation and margins.
