4D’s CADLearning Plugin Now Available in The Autodesk Exchange Apps Store
4D Technologies has launched its new CADLearning Plugin app in the Autodesk Exchange Apps store. The App is compatible with AutoCAD 2012, AutoCAD 2013, AutoCAD Architecture 2013, AutoCAD Civil 3D 2013 and AutoCAD MEP 2013. The CADLearning Plugin is designed to deliver professional video learning within AutoCAD-based software applications. The App can be used as a just-in-time learning tool or an instant video help system.
The CADLearning Plugin is now available for download on The Autodesk Exchange Apps Store. The Autodesk Exchange Apps store is a portal to the Autodesk software ecosystem providing access to add-ins that allow designers to find and immediately download solutions to some of their more pressing design challenges. Customers are now able to access The Autodesk Exchange Apps store both directly on the Web and from within Autodesk products.
The new CADLearning Plugin app includes a palette that provides suggested video tutorials based on the tools or commands selected by a user. From within the AutoCAD environment, the CADLearning Plugin will open suggested video tutorials for users to watch so they can get visual demonstrations and guidance from an expert presenter on screen.
“We welcome 4D Technologies as an early participant in the Autodesk Exchange Apps store – the CADLearning Plugin app is a great example of the range of valuable add-ins easily available to customers from within the design and engineering products they use every day,” said Jim Quanci, Director of the Autodesk Developer Network. “The CADLearning Plugin is a full function add-in to AutoCAD software, offering an efficient learning tool to all Autodesk customers in the industry who rely on AutoCAD for their design projects.”
“We are pleased to offer our CADLearning Plugin in the Autodesk Exchange Apps store and believe the App supports our mission to deliver learning products and solutions for varying styles of learning and comprehension,” said Kyle Chumas, Marketing and Product Manager, 4D Technologies. “The CADLearning Plugin offers functionality that we feel Autodesk customers will greatly benefit from, bringing our professional video tutorials within the AutoCAD application.”
