available at various prices)
DANCAD3D is an excellent and versatile drawing and drafting
program that lets you make very high quality line drawings.
You can draw two or three dimensional drawings. Drawings are
object oriented so elements in the drawing can be
independently saved, loaded, rotated, moved, and magnified at
any time during the development of a drawing. A complete
macro language lets you instruct DANCAD3D to carry out tasks
such as robotic simulations and the production of animated
motion pictures. DANCAD3D prints surprisingly sharp and
crisp lines on Epson-IBM compatible 9 or 24 pin dot matrix
printers. DANCAD3D has very powerful lettering commands and
automatic dimensioning. DANCAD3D works in any system of
units, from light years down to microns.
When used with DANCAM and DANPLOT (disk xxx) DANCAD3D lets
you prepare tool paths that let you manufacture actual
parts. So DANCAD3D not only lets you design, animate, and
draft your projects - you can now automatically make any
part, even complex three dimensional components. Since
DANCAD3D is fully three dimensional tool paths can be
generated for any shape, even ones described by mathematical
formula.
DANCAD3D is useful for many different applications: ~
Mechanical drawings and technical illustrations ~ Business
forms of many kinds. ~ Page layouts which combine text and
drawings ~ Automatic computer slide shows, and 3D computer
animation ~ Engineering simulation to verify the fit of
three-dimensional shapes ~ Produce two or three-dimensional
DANCAM tool path files.
DANCAD3D supports many plotters and can automatically select
up to 127 different pen types. DANCAD3D now supports 300 dpi
HP-PCL compatible Laser printers like the LASERJET II series,
as well as working on laser printers that use PostScript and
HPGL codes. Manuscript quality drawings can be produced on
imagesetters like the Linotronic 300.
DANCAD3D now offers improved ease of use by having the mouse
point and click on most commands. Operation of drawing and
menu selection can be done with a mouse, 3D trackball, or the
normal keyboard keys.
The animation feature in DANCAD3D is a useful engineering
tool since you can use DANCAD3D to make an animated close-up
of moving parts in a layout drawing.
DANCAD3D has these new features: ~ Curve fitting in two,
three, or more dimensions ~ On screen see what you are doing
for drag, rotate, and magnify ~ Windowing, clipping, and
other advanced editing features ~ Measure angles and
distances between any two points in a drawing ~ A full 90
pages of documentation on the shareware disks ~ Automatic
macro file generation to teach DANCAD3D special tasks ~
Automatic backup for protection against errors while
drawing ~ Point and click on a directory of filenames ~ New
Animation feature to display up to 999 drawing frames
This new version of DANCAD3D comes with new demo macro files,
and new printer drivers so be sure to order all five disks!
<< Note: The program DANMOVIE is no longer needed since
DANCAD3D now has an ANIMATE command built in. >>
