Note

Warning!

  • In order to avoid any loss of productivity in your organization, and to give you time to familiarize yourself with the new plot manager, we have left the old one available. That said, the old manager will be removed in the next version of VisionPlus (V34).

  • The use of MDB databases in Geo-Plus products will be discontinued as of version 35 of our products. So you have until January 2025 to try out, test and migrate your MDBs to sqlite format.

    • Here are the advantages of migrating your databases:

      • Reduced disk space usage (2 to 10 times less space depending on the situation)

      • Stability

      • Security (MDBs are considered potentially dangerous, as it is possible to introduce scripts that could be malicious).

Version 33.0.01.45

Compatibility

  • OS: Windows 10 et 11

  • CAD: MicroStation V8i, MicroStation Connect, BricsCAD v22 et v23 et AutoCAD, AutoCAD MAP, Civil 3D 2017 à 2024.
