Trying IMSI/Design’s Free TurboViewer

 
June 24th, 2011 by Susan Smith

IMSI/Design recently announced the debut of TurboViewer, a free app that allows fast viewing of native 3D DWG files on iPad and iPhone.

 

Shown is the Documents screen which displays documents you might store on TurboViewer.

When you open a file in TurboViewer, it will autosense whether you have
opened a 2D file or a 3D file. If you’re in a 3D file it will change the
gesture slightly to optimize its usage.

The main point of TurboViewer, said CEO Royal Farros, is its performance, and
noted that on the 3G iPhone I had it was going to be a bit slower than
on a 4G, or on an iPad, but I didn’t notice that it was slow at all. For
orbiting, zooming in and panning a drawing you can use standard iPhone
commands such as pinch to zoom in and out, do a single finger navigation
to orbit around a drawing. If you have files that are on the web,
select those from your web browser and download those. You can also email yourself files that can be viewed in TurboViewer.

For the full story see AECWeekly on Monday, June 27.
