Smartshapes
SmartShapes technology, in Visio 2000 Technical Edition
consists of shapes designed to behave like the walls, pipes, valves, pumps and
other real-world objects they represent. Users simply drag and drop the industry-standard
shapes they need onto a page. They can even store data in shapes, link them to
databases or spreadsheets, or automatically generate detailed reports from the
stored data. For those not using CAD who nevertheless
need to work with CAD drawings occasionally, Visio 2000 Technical Edition
reads and writes files in the industry-standard DWG and DGN formats.
