Viewing:
Many supported file formats, like almost any raster files (b/w, gray scale, color),
vector (DWG, DXF, DGN), GIS (ESRI/MapInfo), hybrid files like RasterDWG, RVD or
others can be previewed and loaded in a blink. Comfortable and fast zoom and pan
functions allow for detailed inspection. If redlining is activated, all accessible
redlining information will be displayed.
Printing/Plotting:
VPview features sophisticated print and plot functions for raster, vector,
and hybrid files. The image may be plotted up to its extents or any scaling factor.
The plot preview allows for exact positioning and window selection. For color and lineweight adjustments AutoCAD plot style files (CTB) are supported.
Measurement:
VPview allows an exact measurement of distances and areas in the loaded drawings.
File Comparison:
VPview enables quick and visual comparison of different files and drawing
versions. Just load a second file and the difference will be highlighted!
Redlining/Reviewing/Mark-ups:
VPview offers easy to use pre-designed redlining objects ready to be placed
on the drawing. The user is automatically requested to add a headline text for free
placement anywhere around the redlining marker for optimal visibility. Additional
text - for more detailed information or instructions - can be entered into a text
box which will be displayed whenever the corresponding redline marker is called
up. The redlining information can be exported separately. Each authorized redlining
user is assigned to his own redlining entities. His activities are recorded by name
and date. Distinctive rights assigned to a user regulate to either view the redlining
elements, to create new redlining comments, or to check or to remove redlining markers
and comments - usually for managers in a control position. This hierarchy is designed
to fulfill workflow demands of structured organizations and those operating on a
global scale.
