Advanced Features of ZWCAD Software about Publish, Auto Track, Plot Style Support, Multi-Language Support in Mtext Editor, DXF Partial Export, WMF Support, etc.

·Publish
Publish provides an easy way to create either a hard copy set of drawings or an electronic drawing set via DWF. With the Publish function, you can assemble a collection of drawings, specify their plot information through page setup, and the drawings will print in sequence automatically. You can greatly increase your efficiency with this function, eliminating the need to open and print each document separately.

·Auto Track

Auto Track consists of Polar Tracking and Object Snap Tracking, which help you to snap difficult points more easily. When you turn on Polar Tracking and Object Snap Tracking, temporary alignment paths attach lines at precise positions and angles.

· Plot Style Support

Change the color and lineweight of objects universally through a batch process. With CTB Plot Styles in ZWCAD, you can adjust lineweights and colors all at once before printing.

· Multi-Language Support in Mtext Editor

Multiple languages like Chinese, English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Japanese etc. are allowed to be inputted and displayed at the same time. It is convenient for cooperation of international users. You can enter and edit texts with your preferred languages and send it to your international co-worker while he can use his preferred languages to communicate with you.

· DXF Partial Export

ZWCAD allows you to export part of objects in current drawing. It is useful for those who just want to export some part of drafting in a large drawing, which can save you time and export more purposefully.

· WMF Support

WMF (Windows Metafile Format) files are frequently used as a raster image to express object’s character. In ZWCAD, you can insert a WMF file into a drawing file with the Wmfin command.

· Reference and Attribute Modifying

Modify external references and redefine block definitions by using in-place reference editing. You can edit attributes of blocks by using the Attedit command.

· Quick Select

Using Quick Select function in ZWCAD, you can filter selection sets by property (such as color) or by object type.  You can quickly define a selection set based on the filtering criteria you specify.

· Quick Leader

Use QLEADER command to quickly create leaders and leader annotation. Specify different annotation such as mtext, copy an object, tolerance, block reference or none.

·Quick Dimension

The Quick Dimension command creates or edits a batch of dimensions, including baseline or continued dimensions, circle or arc dimensions, and ordinate dimensions.

·MLine & MLedit

Multi-line is an easy way to create an object composed of multiple parallel lines. You can define your own multi-line style and save for later use. You can edit these defaults with the mledit tools.

· Wipeout

Now, you can create a wipeout to masks underlying objects with the current background color. It is a polygonal area that is bounded by the wipeout frame, which you can turn on for editing and turn off for plotting.

· Arctext

Arctext is a new way to align text. It can place the text along an arc of any shape. As you change the curvature of arc, the text automatically adjusts to fit.

·  Enhanced Trim

The Trim function has been enhanced in the new version of ZWCAD. Now trim hatches or dimensions more conveniently, just as you would trim a line.

· True Color System

ZWCAD offers a true color system, allowing you to choose from over sixteen million possible colors.

· Right-click Customization

Customize your right-click button to execute different tasks in different situations. For example, you can define to repeat command in one tool setting or display menus when in another.

· Visual Customization of Menus and Toolbars

All ZWCAD menus, toolbars, command aliases, and keyboard inputs can be customized through an easy visual settings box. Match the utility and the desired command simply by dragging-and-dropping icons with the mouse.  This is a quick and intuitive way for you to edit customizations .

· OLE Support

Object linking and embedding (OLE) is a Windows feature that combines data from different applications into one document. For instance, ZWCAD drawings can be inserted in Microsoft Word or Excel and vice versa. Double-click an OLE object in a drawing can open the source application.

· Shade with Shadow Effect

Give a more realistic appearance of your model in a view port by adding automatic shade and shadow effects.

· Proxy Object Display and Edit

ZWCAD displays and edits objects created from other applications like AutoCAD® Architecture, AutoCAD® Mechanical, and AutoCAD® Electrical, among others.

·  Script Recorder

The Script Recorder function records what you type in the command line, including command names, options, and coordinates.  After finishing the record, you can run this script file in ZWCAD to repeat the drafting process.

· MDE & MDT

ZWCAD is capable of opening up to 255 files in one session. You can work more efficiently in Multiple Document Environment (MDE). ZWCAD provides a multiple document tab (MDT), which lets you select from multiple open documents quickly.

· Express Tools

ZWCAD’s Express Tools feature contains a library of productivity tools that extends the power of ZWCAD. These easy-to-operate tools cover a wide range of ZWCAD options  (including layer management, dimensioning, drawing, object selection, and object modification, etc.).
