New raster image solution added
The IntelliCAD Technology Consortium Announces IntelliCAD® 6.2
May 8, 2006 | Portland, OR
The IntelliCAD Technology Consortium (ITC) (www.intellicad.org) announced today IntelliCAD 6.2, an important update of the IntelliCAD technology.
IntelliCAD 6.2 builds upon the enhancements provided with IntelliCAD 6.1 and 6.0 by further supporting IntelliCAD users with the creation of complex, high-quality, professional drawings.
IntelliCAD 6.2 extends the performance gains from versions 6.1 and 6.0 for handling large files by displaying and inserting drawings with large polyface meshes up to 8 times faster.
New color features include support for true colors, which include more than 16 million colors, and color books, which provide a way to organize collections of colors.
Some ITC members may decide to include a new raster imaging solution, ADeko Raster, with IntelliCAD Professional. ADeko Raster includes easy-to-use features that allow users to work with image files in their drawings.
Major additions and improvements were made to the IntelliCAD COM API, adding dozens of new methods and properties.
Also aiding IntelliCAD users will be more new features, including the ability to view thumbnail images while browsing drawing files, draw and view wipeout entities, attach WAV files as audio notes, use new extension entity snap options, and modify commands to snap to the midpoint of specified points.
When asked about the IntelliCAD 6.2 update, ITC Development Director David Lorenzo replied, "The COM API additions show our continued support for IntelliCAD as a development platform, while leveraging third-party components such as raster imaging demonstrates a strong commitment to our development community. We will continue to build this partnership to provide quality solutions for our users."?
