Thread and well shapes in projected
space:
Corel DESIGNER X6 provides new Projected
shape tools, which include Thread, Well, Cylinder,
and Prism tools. You can quickly and easily draw
thread and well shapes in projected space for the
creation of bolts, nuts, well nuts, and more. These
shapes are frequent requirements for detailed
technical illustrations, and are usually not included
in CAD and other 3D source files.
The ability to add this level of detail helps technical
illustrators ensure that their visualizations are clear,
with all required parameters specified onscreen.
You can now quickly draw thread and
well shapes in projected space.
