Greater Stability

The stability of ZWCAD has been greatly improved with strict debugging using an automated test system. More than 20,000 drawings are employed for stability testing.

1)      Many functions have been rewritten to assure greater stability. These include Undo, Explode, Insert, PasteClip, Stretch, RefEdit, Offset, Trim, Extend, and Snap.

2)      The automatic backup function protects your work from unexpected crashes.

Faster Speed

Overall performance is improved with the increased processing speed of a large number of crucial functions, such as RefEdit, Insert, Pasteclip, Explode, Regen, Stretch, Trim and Extend.

Easier Operations

Functions of ZWCAD are made more efficient so that you can improve your working efficiency.

1)      Aerial View Window

With the help of Aerial View Window, you can pan and zoom large drawings in a window. This action zooms and pans the drawing quickly.

2)      eTransmit

eTransmit improves collaboration between clients. It collects all relevant files in a single package, including drawings, images, external references, and fonts.

3)      Jogged and Arc Length Dimensions

ZWCAD 2009 adds jogged dimensions and arc length dimensions, in addition to improving dimensions overall. Dimension styles are created and modified with the dimension style manager.

4)      Multiple Grips Editing

With the powerful new Multiple Grips Editing function, you can work with more than one grip at a time. Objects can be stretched through multiple grips, and you can use new system variable to control the grips (Grips, GripBlock, and GripTips).

4)      Filter

With the Filter function, you can search for text data or graphical entities through a variety of filter conditions – even searches of custom objects and their locations. Filter also supports searching previously filtered results and creating selection sets.

6)      Improved Undo

Undo\Redo history list helps you execute multiple redoes or undoes.

Better DRX

DRX programming interface (similar to ARX in AutoCAD®) is provided, with the improvement of Insert\Pasteclip\Explode\Extend\Trim\Stretch functions for custom objects. This allows you to develop your application with greater efficiency.
