High-resolution monitor support in AutoCAD

- [Instructor] We're now going to look at another chapter in the course, where we're going to have a look at the new elements of technology and performance in AutoCAD 2018. So you'll notice I've got a new drawing open there for you, it's called HiResMonitor.dwg. And you can see that it's a 3D object that we're looking at from the top, with perspective switched on. So basically what I've got here is Shades of Gray, is the visual style, and if I click on top here, you can see that I've got Perspective switched on instead of Parallel, where it'll just look flat like that. The Perspective basically is making the 3D graphics card and the monitor work that little bit harder. Now, the high resolution monitor support in AutoCAD 2018 even goes up to the new 4K style of monitors. So basically what it means is things like 3D orbits and so on will actually look much better on this new technology. So I'm doing a little orbit there, and you can see how clean that is as we orbit through, like that…
