System Requirements
-------------------

16 bit color (24 or 32 bit recommended for better rendering quality)
12MB free hard disk space

Summary
-------
Active Dimensions 3 is a very easy-to-use CAD and 3D modeling application. Features include Boolean operations, planar geometry extrusion (with edge beveling), basic inverse kinematics, polygon painting and real-time manipulation. You can also create complex curved geometry simply by modeling a basic outline using Outline Blocks and let Active Dimensions 3 generate the curves. It can render scenes in either wireframe, flat, gourand, or phong shading with antialiasing. Active Dimensions 3 also features a special 3D positioning control, called the Dynamic Transformation Control, which greatly facilitates 3D positioning. You can save your image as a bitmap or export your work in the DXF, VRML 2, or Wavefront Obj format.

Installation
------------
You have the option of installing Active Dimensions 3 Version 2.2 in either of two ways.

You may use the first method if you are using Windows 2000, Windows Millennium Edition or have the Windows 2000 installer on your machine. If you are using Windows 95/98 or NT and are not sure if you have the installer, then extract the file named ad3setup.msi into a temporary directory. If the file is represented by a setup icon then you have the Windows 2000 installer on your computer.

Method 1. Extract the file named ad3setup.msi into a temporary directory. (If you use this method, all other files within the zip file are not needed.) Launch this file and follow the instructions to install.

Method 2. Simply extract the files into a permanent directory of your choice, e.g., "C:\Program Files\Active Dimensions 3\". If you use this method, you may delete the file named ad3setup.msi since it is only used by the first method. Double-click Ad3cad.exe to run the application. If you use this method, no changes will be made to your system, such as adding or modifying registry entries and/or DLL files.

Uninstallation
--------------
If you installed Active Dimensions 3 using the first method then you may uninstall it by using the Add/Remove Programs Dialog Box. If you used the second method then all you need to do to completely remove Active Dimensions 3 from your system is delete the application and its additional files.
