ZWSOFT Releases ZWCAD 2009, its Most Efficient CAD Software Ever
ZWCAD Software Co., Ltd. (ZWSOFT) announced the official release of ZWCAD 2009. With native DWG format compatibility, ZWCAD 2009 simplifies drawing solutions through improvements in its working efficiency.
ZWCAD 2009 increases the working efficiency of designers through a number of factors. To assure greater stability, many functions have been rewritten. Its new automated backup function protects users from unexpected operating system crashes. As part of its strict debugging and quality assurance program, ZWCAD engineers used an automated test system to repeatedly check and evaluate the stability of 20,000 drawings in ZWCAD 2009.
Continued improvement in speed contributes to higher efficiency for ZWCAD users. Overall performance has been improved in a large number of crucial functions, such as RefEdit, Insert, PasteClip, Explode, Regen, Stretch, Trim, and Extend.
Thanks to the improved Undo\Redo and the addition of new functions like the Aerial View window, eTransmit command, jogged and arc length dimensions, filters, and multiple grips editing, designers can complete their projects with ZWCAD 2009 more easily and efficiently. By developing these commonly used commands the company has listened to its customers and partners to produce a system which is comprehensive, flexible and quick to operate.
ZWCAD 2009 provides a platform for professional application developers. The improved DRX programming interface (similar to ARX in AutoCAD®) allows design professionals to expand ZWCAD 2009 and develop their applications with greater efficiency. By creating custom objects for their particular industry, users will be able to tailor he system to suit their individual requirements.
“ZWCAD 2009 was produced with the impressive effort of our 150 software engineers and with many valuable suggestions of our partners and ZWCAD users,” said Truman Du, CEO of ZWSOFT. “This milestone version as a whole enables designers to create drawings quickly and easily with considerable cost savings.”
ZWCAD 2009 English is available through free downloads starting today, according to Truman Du. In the following months, six multilingual versions (Czech, German, Japanese, Polish, Russian, and Spanish) will also be implemented actively to meet the requirements of local users.
