InspectionXpert OnDemand for CAD continues to be easier to use and offers additional flexibility and options for extracting data, managing revisions, and much more!. This Service Pack Release (“SP07”) is our 7th major upgrade for this product in 2015, and offers our clients 5 powerful new features and capabilities in addition to a wide variety of other fixes and improvements.

Overview of Features:

  • Revision Management - Process revisions for all supported CAD formats!

  • Characteristic Identification with automatic Balloon Appearance presets - Define a variety of balloon appearance settings to be automatically applied based on the Classification of your characteristics.

Here are the details:

Revision Management- Users can now process revisions using this new feature. Revision Management automatically analyzes changes between two CAD files and provides a summary of all annotations that have been removed, modified, or added. Users can choose to have InspectionXpert OnDemand for CAD automatically process all of the changes between revisions, or to highlight all changed items in the project, allowing the user to review each item individually. See screenshots below for more details.
