Discover the new interface of AutoCAD 2015. The darker theme reduces eyestrain and allows fine lines, buttons, and text to stand out. The refined appearance extends to canvas, including grips and selection highlighting. Repositioned buttons improve functionality to help you work faster. The updated interface is better suited to modern hardware-accelerated 2D and 3D graphics. 2D vectors paint on screen faster and panning and zooming functions run faster as well. The software truly takes advantage of the graphics hardware available in the latest computers. The AutoCAD experience was completely redesigned by incorporating user feedback. The new interface is consistent with other professional products and the response has been overwhelmingly positive. All of the buttons remain fully customizable, and you can even revert back to a lighter theme. Discover the new AutoCAD today.
New and enhanced features Refined interface An updated interface improves functionality and reduces eyestrain. New Tab Access the data you need to start working quickly and easily. Ribbon galleries Save time and clicks by visually accessing drawing content directly from the ribbon. Command preview Evaluate changes before committing with more commands such as trim, extend, and match properties. Help window The UI finder includes an animated arrow to show tool locations within the ribbon. Geographic location Capture online maps as static images and freeze contextual location, and even print your maps. Productivity tools Edit text like you would with a word processor for styles such as auto bullets and super-/subscript. Reality computing The point cloud is now the model, thanks to tools that let you snap to the point cloud.
Protect your designs with TrustedDWG technology You’ve invested thousands, if not tens of thousands, of dollars in developing your designs. Help retain the integrity of your design data throughout the review process with TrustedDWG technology. Built into AutoCAD, TrustedDWG is the original, most efficient, and most accurate way to store and share design data. TrustedDWG files are created using a complete technology that maintains each element in a drawing, and the relationship between elements, with data fidelity. With over 30 years of technology wrapped up in every TrustedDWG file, it helps you preserve and protect your invaluable designs.
