Project: CAD Data Translator

 

 

Design Services Performed:

Description:

This is a software only product that takes a CAD tool data report, reads it and then 'grabs' control of the CAD system to automatically pan the user around the PCB design. This saves time by allowing the designer to simply press the 'N' or 'P' (for next or previous) data points instead of manually typing in X/Y coordinates. Even though you may not have the ability to get your CAD tool vendor to change his program - you can extend nearly any Windows application with clever programming techniques.

  • Fairly complex string parsing programmed in Visual Basic.
  • Pushbutton GUI interface without a lot of option setup necessary.
  • Reads a CAD tool X/Y coordinate database then 'Grabs' the CAD interface and automatically pans the view around.
