[SBE] Visio for broadcast equipment?

[Chris Spacone]

Holidays are when I get the most done! No phone calls, nobody to bug me! Quality bench time with my newest toy! If I could bring beer my life would be complete!

I go to UCLA extension for several classes. The school has absolutely smoking deals on a number of useful Microsoft products.

 

Enroll in a class at your local university or extension program, polish some skills or learn some new ones and get good deals on some MS products!

Thanks. I may tap into the board's suggestions as my friend can get me a cheap, unlimited version of Visio 2010 Pro. I was going to go another route but this is too good to pass up.

In working with CAD into Visio you can import a 2d CAD dwg dxf into Visio but you have to do a left click conversion process to make it editable and that is limited.

 

Generally if I am importing a CAD into Visio for say a floor plan I export the CAD as an image (bmp, wmf) and use it as a base in Visio to draw over.

Henry,

I haven't found that any work better with CAD.  The only difference are the extras like gantt charts, etc.

If you go to the Microsoft web site, the "compare features" is pretty helpful.  I've used the early Visio (think it was 2005), 2007, and am now running on a beta of 2010.  I really think 2007 was easier than '10, but '10 adds more bells and whistles.

Hope this helps you.

Best wishes,

Dan

Which version(s) are best to support CAD-like uses- Standard, Pro, Premium? Are you using 2010, 2007, or earlier?

We have had Visio stencils on our web site for public download for a while they are not really advertised on the site but mostly there so staff in other offices can access them when needed.

ftp://techweb.rfa.org/pub/3d-project/Stencils/

They are not that organized or being updated regularly. But that said... if people want to upload their stencils we can throw up a page on the site for stencils and have them all up for shared download. It could be a consolidated pool for broadcast related stencils and save redundancy of effort in people recreating the same stencils over and over.

Upload is at:

ftp://techweb.rfa.org/incoming

The site is at http://www.techweb.rfa.org/ and it was setup for broadcasters.

If you are interested or do an upload shoot an e-mail to:

techweb at rfa.org
