Description

The software features ribbon tabs, a quick access toolbar manager, and a "customize" dialog box that allows users to modify menus, toolbars, keyboard shortcuts, and aliases. For those who frequently use the command line, there is an autocomplete function that suggests commands based on the initial characters typed. Users can personalize various general options, including display settings, file paths, user preferences, crosshairs, and profiles. The publish command enables users to plot multiple layouts to DWF/PDF formats or send them to a designated plotter as per the page setup. Additionally, it allows for the alteration of 2D drawing objects as well as 3D solids, including three-dimensional meshes composed of polygons. GRAITEC has developed an impressive portfolio of BIM technology that includes innovative advancements, providing outstanding solutions in business, processes, technology, and services on a global scale. The company has also strengthened its partnership with Autodesk, achieving Platinum Partner status in Europe and Gold Partner status in the US and Canada, thereby establishing itself as one of the largest partners globally.
