iCADMac Editor’s Pick of the Week on Desktop Engineer

AutoCAD Alternative for Mac OS X

I was at a relative’s house and on a counter was a beautiful, big-screen iMac. The guy’s self-employed, so I asked him if he used it for working from home. “Naaa,” he lamented. “I love it, but the software I need for my business only runs on PCs.” Such has been the complaint of many an engineering Mac maven for years now, but life changes. And the recent announcement of iCADMac from progeCAD serves as another example of the rapid speed of your changing desktop.

progeCAD Selected Editor’s Pick of the Week by Desktop Engineering

DUBLIN, NEW HAMPSHIRE, USA — Desktop Engineering (deskeng.com) announces that progeCAD USA’s (Clackamas, OR) general-purpose, AutoCAD-like 2D and 3D design application progeCAD 2010 Professional was selected as its Editor’s Pick of the Week for September 1, 2010.
“progeCAD Professional is an AutoCAD-like application. It can handle DWG files easily and that it offers commands, interfaces, ‘feel,’ and functionality that should make it readily accessible to seasoned AutoCAD users,” says Anthony J. Lockwood, editor at large for Desktop Engineering. “It’s a low-cost, general-purpose 2D and 3D design CAD system appropriate for concept sketches to MCAD layout.”
“The pitch that progeCAD USA uses is that progeCAD is an AutoCAD-like application at far less cost,” explains Lockwood. “That’s true as far as I can tell. But I actually think that progeCAD is a productivity enhancement system.”
“Its cost enables you to spread AutoCAD-like functionality around your company relatively inexpensively,” concludes Lockwood. “The hour here, the day there it can save you could return your investment in no time flat and that effect can be the one little thing that gets you to market more quickly.”Read the complete Editor’s Pick of the Week at “Low-Cost CAD System Improved.”

Deutsche progeCAD Version bietet verbesserte AutoCAD Kompatibilität

Como-Italien, 30. März 2010: In Zusammenarbeit mit progeSOFT, gibt Nexway die Vorankündigung der Markteinführung der deutschen Überarbeitung von progeCAD 2010 Professional bekannt. Nexway unterstützt den geplanten Launch für Juni 2010 schon jetzt. Sie erhalten nach dem Erwerb der derzeitig verfügbaren Version progeCAD 2009 Professional kostenlos ein Update der progeCAD 2010 Professional ab dem ersten Erscheinungstag.

progeCAD 2010 ist voll kompatibel mit Windows 7 und DWG 2010. Designer, Konstrukteure und Architekten, die mit AutoCAD, AutoCAD LT oder IntelliCAD vertraut sind, haben die Möglichkeit, den Nutzwert der Software für 30 Tage kostenlos zu testen. Im Gegensatz zur meisten AutoCAD ähnlichen CAD-Software übertrifft progeCAD 2010 einfache DWG-Dateiformat Kompatibilität mit speziellen Funktionen wie Google Earth Export, PDF Konvertierung, Abstufung, Quick-Dimensioning („QDIM“) und eine verbesserte Rechtschreibprüfung bei weitem. Deutsche Benutzer haben jetzt auch den Komfort, progeCAD Designbefehle in Ihrer deutschen Muttersprache zu verwenden.

AutoCAD LT Benutzer werden vertraute Programmfunktionen wie die „Plotbereich-Visualisierung“ des Papierbereichs und Unterstützung für DIESEL Ausdrücke vorfinden, kombiniert mit voller DWG-Datei Kompatilität – zu einem Bruchteil der Kosten. progeCAD unterstützt ebenfalls echte ACIS 3D Bearbeitung, AutoLISP und SDS Programmerweiterungen – Funktionen, die in den meisten AutoCAD LT Versionen nicht zu finden sind. Die umfangreichen DWG-Block Bibliotheken und dazugehörige Manager in progeCAD wurden mit zusätzlichen CAD-Symbolen erweitert. Der neue „Erweiterte Assistent zur Datenextrahierung“ führt den Benutzern sicher und einfach durch den Prozess, Block-Daten in Applikationen wie z. Bsp. Microsoft Excel zu veröffentlichen. Zusätzliche Erweiterungen schließen „One-Klick“ Textbearbeitung, ein interaktives „BEREINIGEN“ Befehlsfenster und Elementgruppierung per Mausklick ein.

ProgeCAD Professional 2010 Deutsch bietet ebenfalls eTransmit, eSnap, Unterstützung asiatischer Zeichensätze, ECW, O2C, SVG XML Dateiformatsunterstützung und grundlegende Pixel-zu-Vektor Konvertierung Funktionalität. Die “Express-Werkzeuge” des progeCAD Designpakets, die einfache Bearbeitung von Attributen und die “Suchen und Ersetzen” Funktion von Texten und Attributen macht progeCAD Professional 2010 Deutsch zu einer professionellen Lösung, die darüber hinaus mit einem Verkaufspreis von weniger als 243.00 Euro (ohne MwSt) äußerst kostengünstig ausfällt.
