Plate\’n\’Sheet Professional Version 4 Feature List.
Overview.
Drawing from feedback received from our clients over the duration of Version 3, we have made major changes to Version 4 to provide more shapes and more options within the shapes and more additional features to make your job easily.
\’Ease of use\’ is our guiding principle. In Version 4 we believe we have been able to provide many additional features while maintaining the program\’s original simplicity for the basic user.
