For professional designers, HighDesign 1.8 Professional Edition provides
support for the AutoCAD DWG and DXB file formats from version 9 up to 2008,
and offers advanced options to export the project as high-quality TIFF
images. Both Standard and Professional editions now support DXF from version
12 to 2006. Printing now offers adjustable output resolution and the ability
to print the grid.
With the introduction of Styles and Presets, HighDesign 1.8 Professional
helps designers better organize their projects and save time by condensing
repetitive actions into one click. By saving a preset, current tool settings
can be stored and reused every time it is needed, in any project. With the
new Styles, it is now possible to organize project items by their properties
and activate any tool with any set of properties with one click.
HighDesign 1.8 delivers powerful new tools to let users create
professional, standard-compliant projects in less time. Dimensions now
provide options to adjust every graphical detail such as label offset, gaps
and attributes, all in the current unit, making it easier to comply with
international or company standards. Creating and editing annotations is now
easier and faster. With the new Stretch tool, the user can now experiment
new solutions by transforming any part of the drawing with just two clicks.
Arrowheads and markers have been improved with the introduction of new types
and adjustable size.
Performance has been enhanced in HighDesign 1.8 so it’s faster to
complete common drafting operations like redrawing, zooming, selecting,
moving and transforming objects. Many improvements have also been made to
the interface so to provide a more intuitive and accessible user experience.
