Product Features
|
- Variational Sketching
- Bi-directional Parametric or Formulaic Variable-Driven Dimensions — dimensions may be driven by values or variables. Variable dimensions may include formulas based on other associated object dimensions.
- Associative Geometric Positioning

- VCS Toolbar — geometric positional constraint types:
- Point-to-Line — forces a vertex to lie on another vertex or another object.
- Point-to-Point — forces a point or endpoint lie on another point.
- Concentric — makes two arcs, circles, or ellipses concentric, or places a point or endpoint at the center of an arc, circle, or ellipse.
- Line-Parallel — makes a line or ellipse parallel to another line or ellipse.
- Line-Perpendicular — makes a line or ellipse perpendicular to another line or ellipse.
- Line-Tangent — makes a line tangent to an arc, circle, ellipse, or spline.
- Tangent — makes an arc, circle, ellipse, or spline tangent to another arc, circle, ellipse, or spline.
- Equal Radius — makes a circle or arc have the same radius as another circle or arc.
- Equal Length — makes one line have the same length as another line.
- Fix — locks an object or point at its current coordinates, preventing the object or point from moving when constraints are applied.
- Horizontal — makes a line or ellipse horizontal.
- Vertical — makes a line or ellipse vertical.
- VCS Toolbar — variable dimensional constraint types:
- Radius — sets the radius dimension of an arc or circle.
- Distance — sets the distance dimension between two lines, points, arcs, circles, or ellipses. Sets of lines are also made parallel.
- Angle — sets the angle dimension between two lines or ellipses.
- Arc Angle — sets the angle dimension of an arc.

|
- Automatic constraint generation for dimensional and geometric relationships.
- Show/hide constraint markers.
- Calculator palette for driving dimensional parameters including formulas.
- Persistent constraints that remain until removed unlike simple drawing aids.
- Works with AutoCAD Modify commands including copy, mirror, array, scale, trim, rotate, fillet, chamfer...
- Does not require separate file as all data is encapsulated in the AutoCAD native DWG file.
