What’s new in Teamcenter RapidAuthor 14.2?
RapidAuthor 14.2 can auto generate interactive catalogs
IPC pages can be automatically generated based on the assembly structure, further reducing manual effort to create content. The IPC generation process can be tuned through the new configurable parameters such as page names, viewpoint settings and maximum depth of created pages.
Reuse of context geometry
Context geometry can be easily prepared with RapidIllustrator and added to other projects. This saves users a significant amount of time and effort, allowing them to focus on more important tasks, and results in a more intuitive, interactive, and engaging documentation experience for the end user.
Unmerge data
Version 14.2 introduces an Unmerge command, making it easier to manage and manipulate large, complex assemblies.
2D editing: raster image and logical operations
RapidAuthor 14.2 also includes a new raster editor making it easier to edit existing 2D images including scans.
New visualization modes improve user experience
X-ray mode: selected objects are highlighted in a different color and other objects appear translucent.
Translucent shell: selected objects are highlighted in a different color and the outer shell of the entire assembly or product appears translucent.
