July 1st, 2006· Monitors window has been added. Monitors window logically finishes the information transfer process in video surveillance system "from a real object to an operator" and thus, allows to model the video surveillance system as a hole.
· The new tool in 3D window - PTZH frame allows operating a camera in 3D window similarly to PTZ one and additionally to change camera's installation height. Together with the Monitors window this tool offers a new method of 3D CCTV design.
· There is a new opportunity to carry out Depth-of-field 3D modeling.
· There is a new opportunity to carry out 3D modeling of visibility limited by rain, snow, fog according to the Meteorological Visibility.
· Current construction parameters panel allows creating and editing constructions by input of parameters.
· The Load camera box is essentially modified and renamed to the Cameras list box. The following options are added: 3D image show, search, sorting.
· Snap panel allows fast switching of snaps during drawing.
· An option to set heights in 3D window separately for each construction, irrespective to a line type.
· The new tool - Inclined rectangle allows modeling 3D inclined objects.
· The new tool - Filling allows creating fillings and hatchings.
· Print preview box is updated. There is a new option to save exact position of the drawing and adjustment for reprinting. The print area displacement caused by Line type panel and Font type panel is eliminated.
· The new 3D models: a boy and a truck.
· The new tools: Combine to block e Destroy block.
VideoCAD 5.0 can use files of the following CAD formats as a background:
· *.dxf AutoDesk DXF Release 12, 13, 14 , 2000, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006.
· *.dwg AutoDesk DWG Release 12, 13, 14 , 2000, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006.
· DWG and DXF reference images, SHX fonts, DXF Autocad Table, Hatch gradients, Unicode fonts (important especially for languages based on hieroglyphs - Chinese, Korean, Japanese etc.) are supported in CAD background.
· Visibility of Camera view area in 3D window can be switched independently of View area visibility in Graphics window.
· Displaying of cameras' names and titles can be switched separately..
· Option to switch on/off the display of view area and view area projections for all selected cameras simultaneously.
· Selected camera changes the color together with it's view area.
· Construction of person detection area is carried out more precisely, considering additional inflection of bound.
· Option to move constructions and cameras in Select/Edit mode, without switching to Move mode.
· While working only with cameras we have a new option to lock constructions.
· The tool Find loaded camera is updated and renamed to Show loaded camera.
· Number of redrawings in 3D window is reduced for increasing of program's speed. For forced redrawing, click the image in 3D window.
· Exact position of the drawing is stored at finishing the work with the program and restored at restart.
· Reloading speed of cameras is increased.
· The range of drawing scaling is expanded.
· The range of focal lengths of lens is expanded.
· Many functions are improved, detected errors are corrected.
· VideoCAD 5.0 can read projects, created in VideoCAD 4.xx.
