Design and shape the world around you with AutoCAD® software, one
of the world’s leading CAD programs. Explore ideas more intuitively in
3D, speed documentation, share ideas seamlessly, and customize AutoCAD
for your specific needs. With new and updated tools for 3D conceptual
design, model documentation, and reality capture, AutoCAD 2012 helps
design professionals maximize productivity.
Model Documentation Tools
Save time by automatically generating intelligent documentation for
AutoCAD, Autodesk® Inventor® software, and other models. Import a wide
variety of other formats including Solid Works®, Pro/ENGINEER®, CARIA®,
Rhino, and NIX®. Drawing views, edge display, and location are instantly
updated when an engineering change is made.
3D Free-Form Design Tools
You now have the power to design ideas in almost any form you can
imagine. Simply push/pull faces, edges, and vertices to model complex
shapes, add smooth surfaces, and much more. With tools for surface,
solid, and mesh modeling, AutoCAD provides the utmost flexibility and
control when designing in 3D.
Autodesk Inventor Fusion
Adds to the 3D conceptual design capabilities of AutoCAD and sets a
new standard for professional 3D modeling ease of use. It enables you
to flexibly edit and validate models from almost any source, helping you
further experience the benefits of easy-to-use 3D in the native DWG
format.
Parametric Drawing
Dramatically slash your design revision time with parametric
drawing. By defining persistent relationships between objects, parallel
lines remain parallel and concentric circles remain centered, all
automatically. And now, you can infer geometric constraints in real
time—as you draw—eliminating the need to manually define all of your
object relationships.
Point Cloud Support
Bring your 3D scans to life, streamlining time-consuming renovation
and restoration projects. With support for up to 2 billion points, you
can quickly visualize and snap to the surface of your scanned objects
directly within your modeling workspace.
Associative Array Functionality
Save valuable rework time by establishing and maintaining a set of
relationships between arrayed objects, such as windows on a building or
trusses on a bridge. Plus, you can now array objects along a specified
path (rather than just rectangular or polar options), saving even more
time when creating conceptual designs or finished documentation.
PDF Support
Sharing and reusing designs has never been easier thanks to robust
PDF support within AutoCAD. With True Type font support, import and
underlay capabilities, and powerful publishing capabilities, AutoCAD
helps facilitate clear communication when using PDF.
Multifunction Grips
The power of multi-function grips has been extended to more AutoCAD
objects including lines, arcs, elliptical arcs, dimensions, and
mleaders as well as 3D faces, edges, and vertices.
Hatch & Gradient Enhancements
Save time with hatch preview, gain more control with expanded
object grip functionality, and choose from more options for appearance
of hatches with the addition of background color. Easily send all
hatches to the back of the drawing with a single click.
Object & Layer Transparency
Display drawing geometry with more flexibility by applying transparency to layers, blocks, or objects.
