Microspot releases DWG Viewer version 1.7
October 21, 2011 in Illustration
[prMac.com] Maidstone, United Kingdom - Today Microspot Ltd. developers of 2D and 3D graphics and photo applications, announced the release of Microspot DWG Viewer 1.7 a new version of its popular 2D AutoCAD(R) file viewer. It is a simple solution for users who do not have knowledge of AutoCAD and want a Mac like program.
DWG Viewer is a Program based on Microspot's MacDraft Professional which opens AutoCAD DWG files created on Windows PCs. It opens the Layouts as well as the Model and allows you to show, hide or grey the individual layers and zoom in and pan around the document. Mark-up tools are available to draw red ellipses around points of interest and add textual annotation. The resulting document can be printed and/or exported as a PDF file so it can be sent to co-workers that do not have the DWG Viewer application.
This new version has a customizable tool bar for quicker access of menu commands and a new and improved Layers palette, which gives more control of the visibility of the layers in multilayer documents. There are now customizable scales that can be used to fill in gaps in the standard scales and the rulers displaying decimal units now have 10 subdivisions rather than 8, making it easier to read off dimensions. The size of the one to one scale is now displayed more accurately on screen giving more realistic looking sizes so 1 inch looks like 1 inch. Text handling has been improved and a Clipped Text Frame has been added to show when text is flowing outside the text box, helping to notice it before printing. The file formats supported have been updated to include AutoCAD 2010/2011/2012 DWG files, with additional support for linking and re-linking of BMP images.
System Requirements:
This new version requires Macintosh OS 10.4 or higher, a power Mac G4 or higher, at least 256MB of memory (RAM), and a minimum screen resolution of 1024 x 768.
