VisGraph : Create technical drawings, or artistic designs with specialized drawing tools with a cool 3D viewer component thanks to this portable, practical app
Visual designers and artists can use powerful computer tools in order to create characters and landscapes in 3D. Specialized applications are required in this regard, with VisGraph being one example of what it takes to create technical, or artistic 3D objects, and environments.
Simple visuals make it easy to use
You’re free to use the application on both your work, and home computer directly from a thumb drive, since it doesn’t require installation in order to function. Apart from a great deal of flexibility, safety is another advantage, because registry entries are not modified in the process, so neither is the target PC’s stability.The main window is split into two panes, one in which you create all elements, while the other represents the preview area. There’s an additional information field which clearly describes the selected tool, how it can be triggered, when drawing ends, as well as the purpose of the two, similar preview areas.
Leaves more to be desired
Drawing needs to be done with instruments, and you only have a handful at your disposal. Selected from a dedicated drop-down menu, these let you create B-Splines, Approximations, Hermites, Convex Hulls, and Delaunay Triangulations.They might not seem too different in design, but each use their own algorithms to generate objects. All of them revolve around points, which you need to place on the design area. The more points on the canvas, the greater the accuracy of your design.As far as preview is concerned, you can rotate the created object, but there are no zoom options. What’s more, all your creations end up as 2D, making the 3D preview area’s practicality rather questionable. By far the biggest disappointment comes from the lack of export options, which render your design more or less useless.
On an ending note
Taking everything into consideration, we can say that VisGraph offers a lot less than expected to see in a 3D design tool. Drawing can only be done in a 2D environment, with a poor set of tools which don’t seem to differ much. Even if you do manage to create something stunning, the only way to save it is through a screenshot, because there are no export options.
