‘Spatial Manager’ comes with a variety of preset Dynamic Background Maps (OpenStreetMap, Bing, Mapbox, etc.) in all versions (AutoCAD, BricsCAD, ZWCAD and Desktop). The latest release (v.6) introduces 8 new Maps in the Bing group that further extend the advanced graphic possibilities in your drawing or maps

In the Bing tab of the Dynamic Background Maps window you can find these new maps, as you can see in the following image:

The new Maps (Take a look at the images below):

  • Aerial with labels (Differs from “Map hybrid” in that it does not include overlapping roads)
  • Dark / Dark (no labels)
  • Light / Light (no labels) (Quite similar to “Map road” but a little lighter in color)
  • Gray / Gray (no labels)
  • Transparent (Includes partial transparent areas)
