Autodesk Design Review 2008 was released on April 2. Technical Writer, Kim Schaefer, reports that the Autodesk Design Review 2008 API document has undergone a major revamping. It has always been available as a compiled HTML (CHM) file but for 2008, it been completely reformatted. The CHM now prints out correctly. The previous CHM printed in a huge font size. For 2008, all of the associated methods, events, and properties are now included in the index. There is a new topic describing document conventions and another one with links to all of the content that is new for this release. The updated CHM also includes instructions for embedding an Autodesk Design Review ActiveX control into a Web page and using JavaScript to create custom interfaces or gather data from a DWF once it has been loaded.
The HTML page loads the control from DesignReviewDll.dll in the same way that the Autodesk Design Review application, a small EXE, communicates with the control.
Thanks Kim. Check it out.
