What Is NVIDIA POWERdraft?
Integrated Driver
NVIDIA POWERdraft is a Quadro workstation application utility.
The driver software is integrated into the AutoCAD environment. 32-bit display list
technology and knowledge of the NVIDIA graphics adapter are combined to provide
significant improvements over existing driver technology.
Note:
The AutoCAD display driver (WHIP!) is part of the AutoCAD plotting engine,
which is a new feature in AutoCAD 2000. NVIDIA POWERdraft replaces the
“WHIP!” display pipeline, but does not replace the “plotting” pipeline or affect the
AutoCAD plotting functionality.
Utilities
The NVIDIA POWERdraft driver includes the
MagniView, MultiView,
and
Cockpit
utilities that enhance the AutoCAD drafting environment without interfering with its
functionality. Fully dynamic and integrated through the NVIDIA
SmartFocus
1
technology, each utility is transparent to AutoCAD and available during any AutoCAD
command.
1. The NVIDIA SmartFocus technology is used in all NVIDIA POWERdraft windows to eliminate
switching of Windows input focus between NVIDIA POWERdraft utilities and the AutoCAD drafting
window.
After you use a function in an NVIDIA POWERdraft utility, keyboard input or cross hair movements will
immediately make the AutoCAD window the active window; you don’t need to click the mouse as with
other drivers.

NVIDIA POWERdraft Overview
Key Features
Cockpit
Cockpit lets you use your pointing device to dynamically pan and zoom the AutoCAD
view. Fully integrated into the AutoCAD
MDI (multiple document interface)
environment through the NVIDIA SmartFocus technology, Cockpit has an easy-to-use
graphical interface that lets you take full advantage of the enhanced NVIDIA
POWERdraft performance.
MultiView
Also fully integrated into the AutoCAD MDI environment, the MultiView utility provides
a visual history of previous views, where each view is represented on a button face. Instant
access to previous views allows you to record and playback selected views in a consistent
manner. Using MultiView, you can also efficiently manage AutoCAD Named Views.
MagniView
The MagniView utility functions as a graphical magnifying glass for detailed viewing.
Toolbar
The NVIDIA POWERdraft toolbar provides convenient access to several NVIDIA
POWERdraft commands.
Hot Keys
For common actions—such as
Pan, Zoom,
and
Redraw All—NVIDIA
POWERdraft
provides configurable key combinations called
Hot Keys.
Hot Keys work transparently
and are always accessible within AutoCAD.
3D Hardware Renderer
To support AutoCAD 3D functionality, the 3D Hardware Renderer accelerates AutoCAD
3D viewing modes such as 3D Orbit or Gouraud Shaded.
Drawing Optimization
NVIDIA POWERdraft provides a configurable
Display Update
cache to accelerate the
execution of Lisp scripts.
Online Help
When you have any Workstation Applications window open, press
F1
to display online
Help, which provides detailed user information about the application. You can also view
the Help outside the application.
For additional information about online Help installation and access, see
“Software
Components” on page 4
and
“Installing NVIDIA POWERdraft” on page 8.
