Easily edit raster reference files — in color — without leaving MicroStation®

RasterDgn  ™

Available for MicroStation V8, XM, V8i and PowerDraft V8i.

 A component of MicroStation Acceleration Garage ™
 
 

Easily edit color, grayscale or monochrome raster images from within MicroStation.

RasterDgn includes the same core features as RasEdit, albeit expanded in numerous ways. A good example of this is RasEdit's ability to "stamp" vector data into the raster file. The stamp feature has been completely redesigned in RasterDgn, resulting in support for situations that RasEdit did not support, such as filled shapes. It also now has a settings dialog box making settings changes easier than ever.

It includes such direct raster editing features as delete, copy and move based on a fence or a user-defined rectangle. You can delete unneeded portions of a raster reference file in just one step, whereas MicroStation alone can only mask portions of raster reference files! RasterDgn also includes more advanced features, such as the ability to "stamp" regular MicroStation vector elements — like ellipses, line strings and text — into the raster reference file as raster data.

RasterDgn's intuitive user interface makes raster reference file editing so simple that it requires little or no training for new users. Configuration for administrators is extremely straightforward, making it very easy to roll RasterDgn out at each site.

Features

  • Edits color, grayscale and monochrome raster reference files easily.
  • Deletes portions of raster images that are not needed — in one step.
  • Familiar interface requires minimal retraining for MicroStation users.
  • Cleans up raster reference files using deskew (automatically rotate referenced raster files to make them level) and despeckle (remove speckles and noise on monochrome files).
  • Uses industry standard raster reference file formats (no proprietary data involved).
  • Can save vector elements to raster format.
  • Crops raster reference file to a fence.
  • Scales or rotates raster images as well as hybrid raster/vector images by fence.
  • Uses MicroStation's Undo (<Ctrl-Z>) to undo RasterDgn operations including copy, move, delete, stamp, deskew, despeckle and resize canvas.

Available for MicroStation V8, XM, V8i and PowerDraft V8i.

RasterDgn is an attractive alternative to high-priced color raster reference file editors for users who need to manipulate either monochrome or color raster reference files from within MicroStation. RasterDgn modifies the attached raster files directly.
