The GSD (Graphical System Design) editor in 4.10.090 is a true vector-based tool. It does not rely on Adobe Flash or Silverlight (crucial, as those are dead). It uses native GDI+ calls. The -x86- version supports "ActiveX embedding." Legacy sites often embedded the Siemens OcxClock or third-party VLC ActiveX for CCTV overlays.

Siemens Desigo XWorks Plus 4.10.090 (x86) is a stable, battle-tested tool for maintaining older Desigo installations.
