An important new feature in version 2 of DoubleCAD™ XT PRO is the bundling of the DoubleCAD Drawing Compare application. This application installs a menu item so that it can be launched directly from within the Tools menu of DoubleCAD. Select two drawings, whether .2CD, .DWG, or .BMP images, and Drawing Compare will perform a visual comparison of the two.

There are options to switch from one to the other, to show only the differences, or to have the differences blink, quickly highlighting where changes have been made. Zoom In or select to Zoom to Differences to quickly spot any updates.

The drawing comparison is an invaluable aid when working collaboratively on a project, or when picking up an older project and looking to see the status of updates. Use it to compare a design and an As Built drawing to see where changes have been implemented.

Below are two more examples demonstrating the Drawing Compare feature in use.
