GstarCAD 2012's Unique Functions Speed up Design Work
GstarCAD 2012 unveils its unique functions including Boolean operations on polylines, exporting tables to Excel spreadsheets, and incrementing copied text etc. to minimize repetitive tasks, and greatly improve the efficiency of GstarCAD 2012 customers.
Beijing, China: December 7, 2011 - GstarCAD, a leading 2D/3D design software provider, today provided additional information on a group of unique plug-ins being implemented in the upcoming release of GstarCAD 2012. These include Boolean operations on polylines, exporting tables to Excel spreadsheets, and incrementing copied text. These and other new commands are called upon by designers working in industries such as AEC (architecture, engineering, construction), mechanical design, and manufacturing processes. The set of unique functions distinguish GstarCAD 2012 from other CAD systems, and highlight its design-oriented feature set.
Boolean Operations on Polylines
The Polyline Boolean plug-in conducts Boolean operations -- Subtract, Union, and Intersect -- directly upon closed ploylines. Unlike the Trim command or Boolean operations applied to regions, the operation of Polyline Boolean is simpler to carry out, because users don't need to perform complicated selections, or convert polylines into regions, or join resulting segments with PEdit command. The operation maintains polylines as polylines, which is very convenient for further editing.
Incremental Text Copying
By using GstarCAD 2012's Incremental Copy Text plug-in, drafters can copy text while increasing a specified letter or number automatically in alphabetical or in numerical order. The increment value can be specified by users. Customers will find this function useful in a wide range of applications, such as automatic numbering of electrical connectors in industrial designs.
Exporting CAD Tables to Excel Spreadsheets
The CAD Table to Excel Table Conversion plug-in exports existing tables from GstarCAD drawings directly into Microsoft's Office Excel. The function allows users to customize table styles, such as specifying double-line, dashed line, diagonals, or polylines. By eliminating tedious work by hand, this plug-in provides a more convenient way to collect information from drawings (especially old ones) and to generate documents, like bills of material, using the powerful functions found in Excel.
These unique functions are offered only in GstarCAD 2012, and provide a practical and flexible approach to design and drawing. They minimize repetitive tasks, greatly improving the efficiency of GstarCAD 2012 customers.
Beta Availability
The pre-release English version of GstarCAD2012 Pro is available now as a 30-day trial, and can be downloaded free from http://www.gstarcad.net/ver.php?id=13&for=1. Gstarsoft anticipates shipping GstarCAD 2012 in December 25th, 2011.

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
