Odessa, Ukraine, December 12, 2005 – Computer Systems Odessa releases major

“The major focus of version 5.5.0 is to facilitate document exchange with

easier”, – says product manager of ConceptDraw V Sergey Savenko.

The program adds support of alpha-channel, which allows applying
transparency to any object, line, filling, shadows or texts. Moreover, each
object may have its own colour palette. There were also extended operations
with Smart Connectors, enlarged units of measurement by adding possibility
to use pixels as document dimensions and improved possibility to use feet
and inches as object’s dimensions. The program features extended
collections of wizards, templates and task-specific libraries of shapes.
