ABViewer Enterprise 10.0.1.26 (x32/x64)[Multi][Patch]

ABViewer is a high-quality, cost-efficient multi-functional design and engineering document management application. ABViewer offers you a wide choice of professional viewing and editing tools. Support of more than 30 both raster and vector formats is provided, including AutoCAD DWG, DXF, DWF, Hewlett-Packard HPGL, PLT, HGL, CGM, SVG, IGES/IGS, STEP/STP, STL, 3DS, TIFF, BMP, JPG, GIF etc.



The 10th version includes the following features:



Convenient navigation in 3D mode while viewing 3D models

Supported formats: STEP, STP, IGES, IGS, BREP, STL, SAT (ACIS®)

Export into OBJ and STL

Copy with base point

Embedding of Xref files into the current drawing

Deleting of segments with one mouse click on the internal or external side of the selected outline

Quick access to CAD file settings, layers and layout options from the window Batch print

The window Structure now has search and access to files

Export of bit-mapped images into DWG and DXF in the window Batch

Command Convert to polyline converts the selected object into a polyline

Command Show performs zooming of the selected objects in the window of the program working area

Commands Explode all and Explode all inserts break connections between all compound objects in the drawing

The option Show contours of composite objects added and includes showing of the objects contours while relocating complex objects

Polyline editing improved and now parallel relocation of line segments is possible

The option Fillet for polyline that enables the user to create arc segments of a specified radius

The opportunity of filtration added in the window Layers

Command line improved, system variables added



Work in 3D mode has become easier due to convenient navigation. When object is pointed with the cursor its surface is highlighted.



Key features:



A combined viewer, editor and converter

Full list



Managing Portions of Drawings:



Copying portions of drawings to the clipboard in raster (BMP) and vector (EMF) formats

Printing portions of drawings

Saving portions as separate files (DXF, PDF, BMP, etc)



Editing Drawings:



ABViewer allows editing of both standard CAD formats such as DWG and DXF and other vector files: PLT, SVG, CGM. The application provides all the professional editor tools and enables operations supported by ‘heavy editors’, which are usually used for design work.



Conversion Features:



Copying to the clipboard as BMP, EMF/WMF

Exporting drawings to raster formats BMP, JPEG, GIF, TIFF with the possibility of additional settings

Saving vector data when exporting to the vector files: PDF, DXF, PLT, SVG, CGM, SWF, WMF, EMF

! Important: Clip Rectangle allows conversion of a selected part of the drawing



Batch Conversion and Batch Print



It is now much faster and easier to print or convert a large number of files into another format. ABViewer supports simultaneous conversion and print in batch mode – with the same settings for all files.



Quick Load and Scaling Big Black-and-White Raster Files:



In ABViewer we have applied our know-how concerning 1-bit (Black-and-white) raster formats management. Huge 15-20 thousand pixel files can be loaded in less than one second. They are immediately scaled – a feature that is very convenient with TIFF scanned drawings.



Measurement Tools:



Quick and easy setting of scale factor for measurements – no additional computations needed!

Changing of lengths, areas and perimeters



CAD File Management



You can hide all the texts and sizes just by one mouse click

Convenient switching between files

A large number of settings for snapping to objects, used for both editing and measurement purposes

Measuring distances on a drawing (including the scale factor setting)

3D viewing and editing

Viewing with six orthogonal projections and four isometric views

Automatic rotation of the loaded CAD file by a given angle

Managing layers

Color and black-and-white modes for CAD files

Choosing a background color

DWG/DXF/SVG/CGM arcs and circles can be drawn as smooth curves and saved as metafile arcs, and ellipses as EMF, which allows scaling without loss in quality

Setting the quantity of line segments when drawing circles, arcs, ellipses and splines

Merging drawings into one file

The possibility of viewing a CAD files structure

Supporting SHX-fonts, including UNICODE and BIGFONTS.



File Search



Favorites and Explorer panels give the possibility of fast file navigation. Thumbnails sub-programme allows viewing of all files in a catalogue before they are opened, including DXF, PLT and other files not managed by Windows or ordinary viewers. Due to the up-to-date tab-based document structure, you can navigate between files quickly and easily.



File Navigation



Dynamic scaling of the drawing with the help of the mouse-wheel, like in AutoCAD™. ‘Find text’ and ‘Find point’ lead to the necessary part of the drawing quickly. If only the contour of a detail is required in the drawing, it is possible to hide all the texts and sizes by one mouse-click; it is not necessary to open layers and change their visibility.



Redline



The Redline mode or commentaries to the drawing provide additional information that is ‘applied over’ the drawing but does not change the basic file. All editing elements are at your disposal in this mode. Commentaries and remarks, together with the basic file, can be printed or converted to another format. A drawing can be supplied with many commentaries of this kind. In addition, the path to the redline files containing the remarks can be saved, which allows to load the files automatically when the drawing is opened next time.



Print



The print feature provides the user with a vast range of capabilities. Both a single file and a set of files can be printed with predefined settings. The ‘Print preview’ dialog box contains a large number of settings, for example DWG/DXF line width, color and layers, and nil width value. Printing ‘in tiles’ allows printing images on any number of sheets of any size with the necessary scale. For example, large images (A0, A1 etc) can be divided into many small pages of a different size for subsequent pasting together into one big drawing. Any ‘tile’ can be printed separately. Therefore, if one page seems defective (e.g., because of problems with the printer), it is possible to re-print this page separately. As an alternative to printing the whole file, it is possible to print a selected area (with the help of ‘Clip Rectangle’ that selects the required part) and print the view area. Color drawings can be printed with a black-and-white printer in high quality and without grey halftones. There is a number of frames that can be inserted onto the printed page.

Preset sizes for standard formats (ISO-A; DIN: A4, A3, A2, A1, A0; US: A, B, C, D, E).
