Description

BidScreen XL is an Excel add-in that allows you to takeoff electronic plans in Microsoft Excel. BidScreen XL offers an excellent audit trail and automates the tedious takeoff process. It's easy to takeoff: just click on a cell in a spreadsheet and measure, count, and identify areas from your digital drawings. The Excel workbook saves the measurements and color-coded takeoff drawings and can be edited and printed. You can also apply colors, count symbols and line styles to your drawings. You will also find sample estimating Excel templates for general contractors, concrete, roofing and painting. Uses DWG vector and PDF files. To get exact measurements, snap layers to the object and isolate them. With a single click, you can open multiple quantity takeoff files and multiple pages in a file.

Description

In contrast to bitmap drawing programs that concentrate on modifying individual pixels, vector design employs the use of paths and objects to create images. These vector paths, made up of points, lines, and curves, can be filled and painted in various ways. By combining multiple paths, one can design intricate and detailed objects, which can then be organized into larger designs. Importantly, vector images maintain their clarity and sharpness when scaled up, unlike bitmap images that suffer from quality loss upon enlargement. Upon your initial launch of Graphic, the Documents Browser will greet you with sample documents; simply tap on any document to view it. As you select different objects, the fill and stroke color wells will reflect the colors currently applied to those objects. Adjusting the fill or stroke colors while an object is selected allows you to instantly modify its appearance. In addition to colors, gradients, and patterns, you can also fill objects with images, offering further creative flexibility; remarkably, even text objects can be enhanced with image fills, expanding the possibilities for unique designs. This versatility makes vector graphics an appealing choice for designers looking to create high-quality visuals.
