Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

TurboCAD Professional 8 offers innovative technology designed to make the user's design process easier, faster, and more flexible than ever before. Over 50 key improvements and new features address the needs of mechanical users, architectural users, and general design users in many disciplines. Plus, improved documentation (including a new Getting Started Guide and Reference Manual) help users get started with TurboCAD Professional faster than ever before.

TurboCAD Professional 8 lets you go back through your design process and change any operation. The Part Tree records the entire history of 3-D object creation and modification in the Explorer-like Part Tree Palette. The Design Director is a totally new concept that lets you organize, access, and explore design alternatives easily. New methods of organization and selection of objects are provided to let you quickly assign different properties to the same objects under different conditions. The Design Director Palette gives you Explorer-like access to different lighting conditions or color assignments, workplanes, layers, the visibility or invisibility of multiple objects, and much more at the click of a mouse.

New TurboCAD 8 is turbocharged with faster rendering capabilities. Now with support for LightWorks and Materials, both Draft and Quality Rendering in 8 deliver more speed, plus a new Lightworks engine with OpenGL Acceleration. In addition, the new "click-and-apply" Luminance, Materials, and Environment Palettes let you apply these properties quickly and easily.
