Cortona3D RapidAuthor 13.0 supports S1000D publications consisting of several data modules, provides support for creation of projects in Teamcenter Active Workspace and import of engineering data into projects, and offers new features for creating projections and polygons in 2D illustrations.
RapidAuthor 13.0 now supports publication module, which enables creation of 3D/2D plugin-free S1000D publications consisting of several data modules: creating and editing the table of contents and publication structure, defining references to data modules and other publication modules, as well as support for search function in created publications.
Cortona3D continues to work on further integration of RapidAuthor and Teamcenter Active Workspace, a client platform that provides access to Teamcenter from office and design applications, and any web browser. New features include creation of RapidAuthor projects in Active Workspace (previously, you were able to edit existing projects only), import of engineering data into projects and project update when engineering data change.
Changes in 2D editing include new features for creating projections, improvements in creating and editing polygons by means of new parametrical object, new features for editing circles and ellipses.
The user interface of RapidAuthor has been improved: all menu commands are provided with icons, which improve the visual perception and allow you to add any command to the toolbar; new Viewpoints window is added to manage project viewpoints in 3D; all context commands for DPL table editing are now accessible from the new DPL Table menu and toolbar. In Cortona2D Editor you can assign keyboard shortcuts to a wide range of commands and styles.
