Each shape on the stencil has a thumbnail representation of the component s visual appearance, along with a name. Passing the mouse cursor over any given component displays additional description information in the prompt line of the application, or in a tool tip that appears at the mouse cursor. When the user drags a particular component onto the drawing page, a detailed representation of the component s panel is shown. In the example below, the first figure shows a chassis and several expansion cards on the drawing page the second figure shows the expansion cards placed in the appropriate slots on the chassis. To enhance the usability of the shapes, they easily snap into their appropriate locations.
Expansion cards snap into chassis slots, rack-mount components snap into racks, etc.
The user can easily edit the component information with the included Custom Property Editor. This format typically optimizes performance when dropped on a page, and minimizes the resulting drawing file size. Visimation Inc.
