More improvements and features added
Brand New Engine
IntelliCAD 12.1 Engine: enhances performance and stability, providing a smoother user experience. It offers improved compatibility with a variety of CAD formats.
Speed Improvements
Faster loading times significantly improve efficiency when working with drawings containing numerous blocks or external references. This optimizes workflows and reduces delays.
Advanced Blocks
This feature allows the creation and editing of blocks with parameters, actions, and visibility states. It also supports converting AutoCAD® dynamic blocks into Advanced Blocks, enhancing their interactivity.
Express Commands
QBREAK (Intersection Quick Break) and EBREAK (Auto Intersection Quick Break) streamline the trimming of entities at intersections. This speeds up processes and eliminates the need for manual trimming.
Rubber Sheeting
This add-on helps align geographic data from different sources using control points, providing a non-uniform adjustment. This becomes helpful when aligning aerial survey data with accurate ground survey data.
CHBLOCKBASEPOINT
Changes the base point of selected blocks and all instances without moving their geometry. This corrects distant insertion points and manages various reference points.
INSERTPOINTSVALUES
Inserts coordinate values near selected points with configurable data types. This aids in identifying vital geographic coordinates within the drawing.
Table Improvements:
New functions provide better management of cell border formatting. This improves readability and presentation.
Command Preview
This feature displays the results of Offset, Trim, and Extend commands in real-time, enhancing accuracy and preventing mistakes.
Layers Manager
A new palette allows customizable columns, enhancing user experience. Columns can be rearranged or reset to default.
Data Extraction
This tool provides new functions to create dynamic tables that link to drawing changes. It supports XLS and XLSx exports and includes various customization options for columns and table styles.
Publish
Redesigned with a new mode, offering enhanced functionality. The PUBLISHMODE variable allows toggling between the new and old versions.
BIM Importer
Direct import of Autodesk® Revit® files, with options for layering and material associations. It supports importing entire models or specific views.
IFC Export
Creates IFC files from DWG files, with options for Revit underlays and AEC objects. It allows the selection of IFC4 or IFC4x3 schemas.
Geometric Center Snap
This snaps to the centroid of closed polylines or splines, improving geometric precision. It replaces the previous automatic management by the center snap.
PDF Printers
New printers provide more options and features for exporting to PDF. This improves document management and presentation.
Viewport Improvements
Allows resizing model space viewports by dragging their borders. This simplifies viewport management and enhances user control.
Quick Properties
This can be customized to show specific entity types and properties. This optimizes workflows and provides relevant information at a glance.
Spline Improvements
This feature enables drawing splines using control vertices and knot parameterization. It also joins them with other entities such as lines, polylines, and arcs.
LAYVPI
Isolates layers in layout viewports, freezing selected layers except in the current viewport. This helps manage complex drawings with multiple layers.
Explorer Improvements
This enhancement enhances the management of visual styles, layouts, layers, and external references directly from Explorer and provides customization options for column order and visibility.
3D AEC / Architectural Module
Compatible with AutoCAD® AEC Objects, it offers 3D architectural elements and style management. It includes a multi-level manager, customizable architectural styles, and the conversion of 2D entities to walls and slabs.
Options Dialog
It has been redesigned in AutoCAD style for improved user navigation. The OPTIONSMODE system variable allows switching between the new and old versions.
PROJECTGEOMETRY
Projects lines, curves, or points onto 3D surfaces using a specified direction. Supports various entities such as points, lines, and curves.
.NET
Provides new classes, methods, and properties. This expands the range of customization and integration options. ARX API: Provides compatibility with AutoCAD® ARX
CONVTONURBS
Converts 3D solids and surfaces into NURBS, supporting surfaces created with the convert to surface command. This enhances the modeling flexibility.
Legacy Menus
Enables creation and editing of legacy image tile menus. This provides additional customization options for experienced users.
TFRAMES
Shows or hides frames of images and wipeouts, controlling IMAGEFRAME and WIPEOUTFRAME variables. This improves presentation and clarity.
NLM Migration Mode
This mode simplifies switching servers and supports seamless license management. It helps offices transition between servers.
Other Improvements
Numerous bug fixes and enhancements, including drag-and-drop DWG blocks to tool palettes, right-click window tools, and customizable ribbon expressions, streamline the workflow and user experience.
New CAD Engine
A brand new and improved CAD engine. Fast Open, Regen and Osnap operations.
Enhanced Graphics
Faster, smoother transitions with animation while panning, zooming, or changing views.
New Commands
Improved commands for blocks, layers, printing, and more. Lots of new tools have been added.
