The tutorial in the user's manual is very easy to follow and the user is guided through some of the major operations of the software as he or she creates a 3D model of a table. The selection of elements for modification is simple. Visual Model has a wonderful dialog for working with layers. It absolutely makes more sense than anything I've seen to date. Assigning colors to layers, changing layers, and changing layers of an element or group of elements is a breeze.
Users can also assign names to layers.
DXF files can be imported, but not exported, which I found a bit strange and somewhat limiting, at least outside the realm of Visual Reality. Visual Model does allow loading raster file formats for the purpose of tracing. The Visual Image program is a wonderful piece of programming for the creation, manipulation, and composition of raster images. The mode of operation of the software is very sensible, and the tools used to support the imaging projects are excellent. The tutorial in the user's manual will guide the user through several of the tools, and actually gave me the feeling that creation of imagery that I once thought to be complex to create can be in fact, fairly simple.
