COLOR FOR CAD
WIN ColorFast allows coloring of CAD drawings, letting users apply multiple color, border, shading, and display order options to their designs and then render them. The view can be quickly modified and rendered again for other display options. The software allows the user to order visibility by layer, color fill entities by layer, adjust border width and color by layer, apply gradient shading, save configured templates, export images to popular graphic formats, and export to a plotter or printer. The price is $495. (Eagle Point Software; www.landcadd.com)

OPTICAL DESIGN
WIN TracePro RC and Version 2.3 are updates of software for illumination and opto-mechanical analysis. The RC version is designed as a CAD tool for reflector design, and allows lighting engineers to create almost any reflector geometry. Mouse-driven screens add properties that reflect, absorb, and scatter light from built-in catalogs or customizable surface properties. Version 2.3 has new volume flux maps, user-defined volume scattering phase functions, linear diffraction gratings, and output symmetry conditions. The price is unavailable.
