The Visual ABC ‘Annotation & Ballooning Characteristic' application is designed for user to quickly balloon characteristics on an attached 'image(s)' or 'drawing(s)' and then output that as a PDF. You can upgrade to Visual ABC at any time to other products such as Visual FAIR or Visual PPAP if you require an output such as a dimensional report. Visual ABC is our entry level product and is priced accordingl giving great value due to the productivity increase it brings to your ballooning process.
How it works
Attach any type of image(s) or drawing(s) in such formats as TIF, GIF, JPG, PDF, PNG, BMP, DWG, DXF etc. Then with a left mouse click select the characteristics you wish to balloon and right mouse click to move balloon position. Your next balloon will carry the same position as the previous one to save time and make ballooning easier. You can renumber a balloon if required and the sequence of all balloons will automatically renumber as well. For example you might wish to insert a balloon for a characteristic you missed and then renumber it. For large drawings you have pan/zoom capability and a mistake proofing feature that allows you to white out everything you have marked up. This feature clearly shows anything you have missed whilst ballooning. Output your completed balloon image(s) or drawing(s) in PDF format to either use electronically or send to a printer.
