Rockville, MD, June 13, 2005- IDEAL.Com, exclusive North American Distributor for Consistent Software, launches WiseImage 6.7 for AutoCAD 2006 and AutoCAD LT 2006. WiseImage 6.7, developed by Consistent Software, solves the problem of incorporating scanned raster data into the CAD environment. This is done by adding native CAD-style raster editing and raster to vector conversion inside AutoCAD to facilitate revision creation and new drawing production. WiseImage 6.7 for AutoCAD offers an updated exclusive set of enhancement tools to be applied to black/white as well as grayscale and color images. True ObjectARX technology, the possibility to use AutoCAD dialogs and settings, and an advanced customizable interface in Windows XP style, makes WiseImage 6.7 a natural part of AutoCAD environments.

Raster Object Selection, Editing, and Image Enhancement

The enhanced Intelligent Object Selection technology of Consistent Software allows the selection of raster data by using AutoCAD-style tools - by picking; inside rectangle or polygon; by crossing rectangle, polygon, polyline, etc. Raster objects (raster lines, arcs and circles) have properties (line type, line width, etc.) and precise geometry, which can be changed in the AutoCAD properties dialog. You can also modify the geometry of raster objects by their "grips". Object snapping for raster objects is consistent with AutoCAD snap (that only works with vectors). Wiselmage for AutoCAD has a variety of tools for enhancement and correction of color, grayscale and monochrome raster images. There are color and monochrome filters and image restoration tools such as: color correction, deskewing, four-point correction, elimination of linear and non-linear image distortions, cropping, rotation, resizing, etc. You can correct an image using a specified set of commands with one click.
