The AnimationLab 4.1 plug-in for TurboCAD Professional v12.2 - 14, is an exciting addition that can turn your TurboCAD software into your own personal animation studio.

Features

  • Generate animated GIFs

  • Animate dimension variables created within the Constraint Manager

  • Make edits in the parametric history or Part Tree, and your animation will automatically be reflected

  • Key Framing records node modifications to 2D objects and 3D profiles

Montage Center
The Montage Center is a standalone AVI processing utility that allows you to refine your AnimationLab creations. You can also edit any AVI files you have, or create AVI files from scratch. Insert or delete individual frames, or sets of frames using BMP, JPG, GIF, ICO, WMF and EMF files.

  • Splice AVI files together

  • Add Sounds to AVIs

  • Save the frames of AVIs as separate BMP files

  • Specify JPG or BMP files as backgrounds, or fill with a color, or set transparency, or titles etc.

  • Create compressed AVI movies with defined quality and image size

  • Preview mode provides the possibility to view separate frames, as well as the entire future movie

Seamless TurboCAD Integration
AnimationLab 4.1 animates your images quickly because there is no need to re-render the view in TurboCAD when generating the individual views for the animation. Plus, through seamless integration it takes maximum advantage of your TurboCAD 12 software with these animation commands.

  • Change Material

  • Environment, Change Environment

  • Luminance, Change Luminance

  • Set Name (For the ""actor"" or object you wish to animate)

The File Palette makes file management simple. By viewing the contents of your network directories through a Windows Explorer-like interface, you can simply open and manage your files directly from the TurboCAD desktop. You can also define a list of TCW files (from one location or across your network) and tell it to perform a batch process to all of the files at one time.

  • Batch Open - Open a set of selected files in TurboCAD

  • Batch Convert - Convert a set of selected files to/from any supported TurboCAD format

  • Batch Thumbnail - Create sets of BMP or JPG thumbnails for a set of selected files

  • Batch Animate - Create the same animation on a set of selected files using any of the presets available from AnimationLab

Compatible with TurboCAD Professional v12.2 -14. Note, a patch will soon be available that facilitates the use of Animation Lab 4.0 with TurboCAD Pro 14.

New and Improved Features in Animation Lab

**Contour Animation **- Now Key Frames can remember coordinates of objects' nodes. This allows for the animating of polylines, curves, and profiles of 3D objects.

GIF Frames and Movies- Animation frames can now be saved not only in BMP and JPEG formats, but also in GIF format; and the resultant movie can be either in AVI or in Animated GIF format. Support is also provided for such options as palette optimization, user defined colors count, dithering and transparency.

Constrained Objects Support- Defined actors will take existing constraints into account when each of the frames is calculated. This makes it possible to create animations of cinematic schemes or Compound Profiles of 3D objects. By using the "SetVariable" command, it is also possible to change numeric values of the Constraint Manager variables.

Part Tree Support- If an actor was used as an operand in the Part Tree, then when this actor is changed, the Part Tree will recalculate the resultant body, taking changes into account.

New Commands- SetPropertyValue, SetVariable
