With the state-of-the-art ARES® CAD platform, CorelCAD 2015 offers intuitive new features and enhancements to complement any CAD project:
- NEW Drawing Constraints (Parametric Drawing) for Windows - Increases drawing precision by applying dimensional constraints to ensure 2D designs meet exact proportion, angle and size requirements by forcing a geometric shape to perform in a specified way.
- NEW 2D Editing Tools - Maintains the attribute values while exploding blocks to editable shapes with the ExplodeBlockX, the DiscardDuplicates tool simplifies geometry, and the interactive trim path precisely trims curves and corners on screen.
- NEW Pop-Up Dimension Palette - Displays dimension text formatting and property settings on screen for quick editing and easier control of frequently-used settings.
- ENHANCED In-Place Text and Table Editing - Creates or modifies existing text with the ability to quickly stack text and paste formatted text from Microsoft Word within a project. Inserts, deletes, merges or resizes cells, rows and columns within existing tables to quickly include important text or instructions into any drawing.
- ENHANCED Windows Ribbon User Interface (UI) - Enhances productivity and allows users to easily transition from other CAD programs with customizable Windows ribbon UI workspaces.
