Yes. Based on the current License Agreement in place of “One license per user, per machine.”, a RapidPlan account can only be activated on a single user profile on a particular computer. Activation on another machine or on another profile on the same PC requires another RapidPlan license, otherwise, subsequent activation of the same license will render the program automatically deactivated on the original user account profile.
A license can also be transferred from one company to another. For more information on purchasing or transferring a license please contact sales by clicking here
Yes. If a license is assigned to a new user who, presumably, would want to use a different login username, Invarion Support must be duly notified of such a change so that the necessary update will be made on the records of the license involved. Without prior notification, the new user using his own email address as username will not be able to log in due to an account mismatch. (Check Invarion website for the corresponding Support contact number of the country you're in.)

Note that you will need administrative access to your PC for the installation of Invarion Gateway.
Run the installer, launch Invarion Gateway, and log-on with your current username (e-mail address format) and password. You will then be asked if you'd like to transfer the license to the new machine. Once you confirm, it will start the standard revalidation period of about 12 hours. After revalidating, it will automatically deactivate from the old machine.
Once the revalidation period is over, you can re-launch Invarion Gateway and log-in. Download the RapidPlan application by hitting the Download button. After downloading, you can use RapidPlan by clicking on the Execute button.
Successful installation of RapidPlan relies on certain Microsoft Updates being installed on your computer, in particular the .NET Framework 4 service pack.

Rapid Plan requires our clients to connect to the Invarion Gateway, which means internet connections is needed for active and dynamic connection.
RapidPlan can be used without Internet connection by checking the 'Work offline' box. However, this type of login is available for 2 weeks after the last online login. (so at least once every 14 days you need to connect to the Internet).Just move the mouse over an option in the Layers tab and a text will appear telling you the name of the function or what it does.
Toggle Layer Visibility (eye icon) - hides the layer so the user can see only that layer which he wants to work on.
Lock/Unlock layer - A user cannot edit that layer if option set to lock (the pad lock icon will open if set to unlock)
Toggle Layer Printability - allows users to exclude the layer from being printed

This means you can't scale them without losing quality. You set the option in Tools->Preferences->Application->Image Options->Exported image resolution and you can tell it to produce images up to 8 times larger than the normal size. Rapid is based on vector graphics (not raster), so it can scale its objects as much as it wants with no loss in quality. So with this option set, it will first enlarge the plan, then export it to an image. Images produced this way will be bigger and more suitable for printing.
NOTE: Rapid is not able to scale imported images without loss in quality (like background aerial photos) So if you're planning to export back to an image it's best to use high-resolution images in the first place. Also, uncheck the Tools->Preferences->Application->Image Options->Scale down large images box.
