If you’re coming to PTC/User World Event, please plan to come to demo jam!
Here’s how it works:
We’ll provide the microphone and projector. You provide the laptop and the demo. You get five minutes MAX to demo anything you want, as long as you can reasonably claim that Arbortext is in there somewhere.
If push comes to shove, you can always use the free 14-day trial license for Arbortext Editor and Styler. Just remember the 14-day trial starts at download time not install time. So don’t prep too early!
Judging is by audience participation: if you make the crowd cheer the loudest, you win. Winner walks away with … guess you’ll have to come to find out!
Bring your demo, your entourage, and your loudest voices. Demo jam starts at 7:30p. See you there!
Our thanks to Norm Walsh and Balisage for coming up with this idea, trying it out at other conferences, and letting us join in the fun!

This presentation is focused on the customization of IsoDraw. It will consist of general examples of how macros can be used to simply common tasks, benefits of setting preference files, and advantages of using custom toolbars. The session will be divided into three main components: macros, preference files, and toolbars.
The first component will consist of suggested macro applications such as:
Custom macro that both saves master files and exports production files.
Centralized variable setting macro.
File clean-up routines.
The session’s second component will focus on the advantages of setting preference files:
Consistency of file content.
Shared import and export settings.
The final portion will focus on creating toolbars.
Keeping toolbars user-friendly.
Categorizing tasks by use of various toolbars.
At the end of this session, participants will be able to:
Effectively create macros to streamline the processes of common tasks.
Set preference file to ensure consistency.
And finally, organize macros and common tasks into user-friendly toolbars.
