  1. Import: You import a SolidWorks_Assembly.SLDPRT directly into Corel DESIGNER. The 3D Importer dialog now shows a thumbnail of the model before import (new in .269).
  2. Adjust: You use the "Set Camera Angle" tool. The suite now offers "Iso-Ortho Lock," which automatically snaps your view to perfect isometric angles (30°, 45°).
  3. Trace: You use the "PowerTRACE for Technical Drawings" (a specialized mode in this suite). It distinguishes between hidden lines (dashed) and visible lines (solid) automatically.
  4. Annotate: You add dimensions. The "Smart Dimension" tool now respects the 3D depth of the imported model, preventing incorrect foreshortened measurements.
  5. Publish: You export to PDF/A-3. The resulting file includes the embedded XVL 3D data, allowing the end-user to rotate the part in Adobe Acrobat.
