Columbia, Maryland (October 30, 2009)-Nemetschek North America is pleased to announce that a localized Portuguese 2010 version of Vectorworks® Fundamentals and Renderworks(tm) software is now available in Brazil. Vectorworks Architect and Landmark software are expected to be released in January 2010.

"The 2010 version is definitely a mark in the Vectorworks evolution," says David Oliveira, CEO of CAD Technology, the distributor of Nemetschek North America for Brazil and South America. "With a very well-resolved 2D/3D association and a host of impressive new features, we believe that this version will be well-received by Brazilian Vectorworks users." "In addition," continues Oliveira, "we are making demonstration videos of the new features in Portuguese, as well as hosting weekly webinars which will highlight the new features."

The English-language versions of the Vectorworks 2010 product line were released in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, New Zealand, and other international markets on September 15, 2009.
"Making Change Easy" is the theme for the Vectorworks 2010 product line. Building upon the integration of the Parasolid® 3D modeling core in 2009, version 2010 is making change easy with the addition of bi-directional associativity features and an intuitive, easy-to-approach 3D modeling environment. These capabilities ensure that changes are intelligently reflected throughout the entire design which is a cornerstone for information modeling workflows in the building industry and beyond.

"Demand for more efficient design and construction over the past several years has led many professionals to evaluate making a change in their technologies and workflows to incorporate intelligent modeling software," states Sean Flaherty, CEO of Nemetschek North America. "Many small- and medium-sized firms find the transition to information modeling workflows difficult, as technologies are hard to learn and complicated to use. The additions to Vectorworks 2010 are going to help remove these barriers and make the change for designers easy."

There are more than 80 new features in version 2010. For a look at all of the new features by product, as well as feature movies, please visit:
