Access your critical data from various sources to ensure all of your important technical files can be delivered in a readable format.

New! 3D illustration updating

To speed up technical-publication authoring, CorelDRAW Technical Suite X7 with the Lattice3D Studio CAD Corel Edition Add-On offers the Auto detection and update command. It lets you automatically generate updated vector illustrations to replace ones in DES files that were created using the Send to Corel DESIGNER command. The illustration specifications, such as view, positions of the objects, line weights and export settings, are fully recognized and maintained. As a result, the illustrations are recreated using the updated 3D model and inserted in the same place as the original, allowing technical illustrators to start a publication with a preliminary 3D design and update it with the final design instantly.

You can automatically update 3D illustrations.

Enhanced! Insert 3D model

Corel DESIGNER X7 offers you more flexibility when you insert a 3D model in a drawing. You can now embed a 3D model (XVL file), which gives you the option of editing the 3D model within the Corel DESIGNER (DES) file at any time. What’s more, if you share the file with other users, they’ll be able to work directly with the embedded 3D model, eliminating the need to distribute both the DES and external XVL files. And just as in previous versions, you can link a 3D model, which automatically updates it in a DES file whenever the XVL file is modified in Lattice3D Studio CAD Corel Edition. For more information, see Inserting and adjusting 3D models.

You can embed or link 3D models in drawings.
