VVI Inc. Announces Drafter for NEXTSTEP
State College, PA; April 7, 1993 - VVI, Inc. today announced the release of
Drafter, the technical graphing application for business, financial, and
engineering use.
The Drafter products are a significant development in technical graphics which
are not duplicated by any other NeXTSTEP product. Drafter is designed to plot,
annotate, acquire, and edit your data. The clarity of its purpose translates
into a clearly defined and powerful technical graphing tool. Within minutes
you can create and edit graphs of your data. Every step is clearly indicated
to give you pertinent information and immediate access to the graphing and
page layout operations.
Features include:
- Graphics. Bezier curves, lines, rectangles, rtf, eps, quadrilateral image
warping, text wrapping, groups, smoothing, rotating, skewing, scaling are but
a few features available.
- Data Graphics. Histogram, line, smoothed curve, areas, scatter, contours,
and signals (animated data plotting).
- Axes. Coordinates scale and shift using axis mouse controls, direct editing
of axes labels, inspector editors, and magnification cross hairs.
- Palettes. Palettes include standard labels and symbols used for technical
graphing. The palettes may be edited to suit your purpose.
- Inspector. All graphics, data graphics, and many more components have
inspectors with editor sub-links and inter-editor links.
- Mouse and Key Commands. All graphics, including data graphics, can be
controlled through mouse and key commands. Rotation, translation, skewing,
selecting, focusing, and point editing are but a few operations available.
- Document Page Layout. Multiple plots per page, labels, titles, and
overlapping plots or graphing areas may be layed out using familiar click and
drag methods.
- Compatibility. Drag and Drop file icons, support of color, copy and paste of
Mathematica output cells (or Edit, etc), eps, tiff, and data parsers. Many
other standard formats supported.
- Help. Online help, context based hints, support by e-mail, and suggest by e-
mail all make this application easy to use.
- Customization. Custom graphics are incorporated on request, or dynamically
loadable. The object and source code are available to permit the ultimate in
custom graphics.
