The company: | |
In 1995, Palette CAD was founded as a start-up company in Stuttgart by Dr.
Walter Zinser. The idea was to develop a 3D CAD program specifically for
planning interiors. It was to be as simple as a kitchen planner yet as powerful
as a CAD program and tailored to the needs of designers, craftsmen and specialty
retailers. Our drawing program can be found everywhere that custom craftsmanship
is on demand: In the design of bathrooms, with tiles and natural stonework, with
carpentry and joinery work, in stove and fireplace construction, interior
fit-outs and much more. Individual designs can be realized simply and, above
all, efficiently, with Palette CAD. |
|
The challenge: | |
The first version of Palette CAD Software was released 1995 and the last face lifting was 2005. Even at this time we used the standard edition of the BCGLibrary. Now the time has come to create a new and modern user interface to target the customers of tomorrow. |
|
The solution: | |
We used the BCGSoft implementation of the Ribbon UI along with the docking managers. This saved us a lot of time and work. Anyway, we couldn't get around understanding the framework in detail to do the required customizations. And I was really satisfied with the support of BCGSoft to accomplish this task. |
|
The result: | |
It has a user interface which embraces the concepts of Windows 8 UI with large informative buttons. |
