Collaborative Design Platform for DWG Drawings

Based on new technologies like drawing data incremental storage and transmission, Collaborative Design Software enables cross-department and cross-team design collaboration based on DWG drawings. These design collaboration tools allow designers/draftsmen to easily trace and return back to any previous version and to locate design changes with just one click, ensuring design quality and overall accuracy of specific projects.

Benefits of the GstarCAD Collaboration Platform

Collaboration

Drawing data incremental storage and transmission

Collaboration

Multi-person and multi-direction drawing reference

Collaboration

Timely, synchronous and asynchronous drawing data update

Collaboration

Smart drawing version management and tracing

Multi-person and multi-direction drawing reference

  • Support bilateral, nested and circular drawing reference
  • Easy to confirm design progress of other teams and members
  • Possible to display, hide and detach reference drawing at any time
  • In time check and handle conflicts and collisions, reduce design errors at early stages

Collaboration

Flexible drawing reference management

  • Concise and clear tree structure of drawing reference relations
  • Automatically break nested or circular reference
  • Possible to fold/unfold reference relations and hide/display reference at any time
  • Grey display of reference drawings, easy view and edit of current drawing

Timely, synchronous and asynchronous data submission and update

  • Timely submission and update of current drawing, like real-time collaboration
  • Real time reminder, user decides whether to submit and update drawing immediately
  • User decides when to submit and update drawings or, user works offline and submits or updates drawings when becoming online

Collaboration

Drawing data incremental storage and transmission

  • Only save and submit design changes, minimize amount of drawing data storage and transmission
  • Ensure efficiency and timeliness of drawing data transmission and update

Smart drawing version management and tracing

  • Every submission is retained as a version (incremental storage)
  • Possible to view historical versions based on dates and logs
  • Possible to trace back and restore any historical version

Easy check of design changes in reference drawings

  • Check modifications of all reference drawings at the same time
  • Directly view design changes by color distinction, or check details one by one
  • Possible to modify drawings according to the changes
  • Possible to switch confirmed changes to non-display

Roles and permission management throughout project

  • Project leader can assign role and permission to project team members
  • Each team member can access (read/edit/save/submit) to drawing files according to permissions
  • Each team member can export drawing files according to permissions

Convenient project import and export

  • Easy to import Xref projects into collaborative design system
  • Automatic converting Xref relations to collaborative design reference relations
  • Easy to export collaborative design project to DWG drawings
