Description

IDEA Architecture provides sophisticated 3D BIM modeling while maintaining an interface similar to AutoCAD, allowing users to utilize basic 2D commands such as polylines, entity snaps, and copy functions to effortlessly create 3D models with our extensive library of 3D BIM objects. By simply drafting floor plans with the intuitive and parametric objects found in our AutoBLD menu, IDEA Architecture automatically generates the corresponding 3D representation. With a quick double-click, users can access and modify properties of any object with ease. Differentiating itself from other BIM software, IDEA Architecture utilizes DWG as its core file format and offers functionality to convert 3D BIM objects into straightforward vectors, which can be easily viewed and altered in AutoCAD®. This compatibility makes it simple to share both 2D and 3D files with a wide range of CAD users. Additionally, our Architectural Software incorporates all the capabilities of 4MCAD, which serves as a viable alternative to AutoCAD®, ensuring a versatile and comprehensive design experience. By combining user-friendly commands with powerful features, IDEA Architecture streamlines the transition from 2D to 3D design.

Description

Kobi Toolkit for AutoCAD offers a set of practical and useful tools designed to minimize tedious tasks, enhancing your efficiency and speed while working in AutoCAD. One key feature is the Selection Filter tool, which allows users to choose AutoCAD entities through a tree-like control system, enabling the selection of all entities on a specific layer by simply clicking on one element from that layer. Additionally, you can review the extended entity data of a particular object, if it is available. The toolkit also includes a robust feature that lets you populate a spreadsheet similar to Excel with properties of AutoCAD entities, allowing you to leverage Excel's capabilities to edit those properties and reintegrate the changes back into your drawing. Furthermore, it facilitates the alignment of objects to a selected line, with an option to rotate those objects to align with the line’s orientation and set a specific insertion point. You can also establish a base point and elevation, then label various additional elevations by selecting points directly on the screen, with these elevations calculated in relation to the specified base point and its corresponding elevation. Overall, the Kobi Toolkit significantly streamlines the AutoCAD workflow by providing these essential functionalities.
