Description

Introducing the newest iteration of our best-selling CAD viewer, which replaces both the CADwizz MAX and CADwizz LE models, featuring a complete rewrite for enhanced functionality. This updated version not only boasts improved stability and advanced 3D capabilities but also significantly enhances speed and overall performance thanks to its use of OpenGL and DirectX rendering technologies. There is no need for AutoCAD, as the interface is designed to be compact, user-friendly, and efficient. It provides robust support for the latest AutoCAD versions and is fully compatible with Windows 10. Users can effortlessly select AutoCAD files utilizing the integrated File and Thumbnail explorers, while the browser-style Forward/Back buttons simplify file navigation. The software allows for the rendering of 3D models in various styles including wireframe, hidden line, flat shaded, or gouraud shaded, and offers the choice between parallel or perspective projections. Furthermore, it facilitates hidden line removal during printing, enables direct access to zipped archives for viewing multiple drawings, and allows for redline annotations to mark up drawings easily. This comprehensive set of features ensures a seamless and efficient experience for all users.
