Stardraw Design 7.2 includes some important new features and a number of enhancements and bug fixes.
Import PDF: create a new project by importing a PDF file. The project will contain a drawing tab for each page in the PDF and, where the PDF contains vector objects, the drawings will be editable within SD7.2. Learn More...
J-STD-710 Symbols: a new library of Plan View symbols conforming to the InfoComm/CEDIA/CTA standard "Audio, Video and Control Architectural Drawing Symbols" (J-STD-710) and implemented for over 10,000 appropriate products. Learn more...
Plan View Symbols for UDPs: a suite of functionality allowing you to create and use Plan View symbols for your User Defined Products.
User Templates: create drawing templates with your own default settings. Learn more...
Project Cable Schedule: Export | Cable Schedule now creates a project-wide schedule using Cable data from all Block Schematic drawings in your project.
Polyline: a new drawing tool is available in all drawing types allowing creation of Polylines and Polygons. Learn more...
Mirror: Mirror Copy has been replaced by a simpler Mirror command.
Improved Synchronization: the Manufacturer Library synchronization process has greatly improved performance and is now around 8 times faster than previously.
User-Level Application Databases: instead of single, application-level database for the Product Libraries, each user now has a unique database file for their selected manufacturer libraries. This means that it is no longer necessary to complete a full Synchronization - which might take many minutes - whenever logging in as a different user.
Cable tools: the Cable Label and Cable Arc tools are now available in Pictorial Schematic drawings.
Reverse Cable: a new context (rightclick) command is now available making it easy to reverse (switch ends) of Cables that have been drawn the wrong way around. Learn more...
Improved Export menu: the new File | Export sub-menu makes it easier to generate external, project-based data, like Cable Schedules and Equipment Lists.
Improved Symbol Browser: with changes in thumbnail layout, scaling and density, it's even easier to browse to and insert the symbol you want. Learn more...
Improved Help | About dialogs: changes to the About dialog make it easier to see what products you're licensed for and the duration of your Subscription, with shortcuts for purchasing licenses and renewing subscriptions.
Synch User Defined Products: you can manually initiate a UDP Synch from the Tools menu meaning that you can download new User Defined Products created on other computers without having to restart SD7.2.
