VueLink for Hummingbird DM also provides users the basis to add further powerful functionality to the Hummingbird system through the use of custom designed tools.

Custom designed tools offer many possibilities. Users can create intelligent custom stamps that query for document information to include in a markup.

Custom applications can be created to extract relevant information from an AutoCAD or MicroStation file, and automatically link it with information (such as a Bill of Materials) available in the Hummingbird DM server. This brings the concept of intelligent drawings to a new level.

These features are also available from within your Web Browser using the AutoVue Client Server Edition.
