Cut Design Time with Parametric Drawing

The ObjectARX® 2010 development environment enables you to dramatically slash your design revision time with parametric drawing. By defining persistent relationships between objects, parallel lines remain parallel and concentric circles remain centered, automatically.

Free-Form Design Tools Provide Freedom to Create

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.

Enhanced PDF Support

Sharing and reusing designs has never been easier, thanks to enhanced PDF support within AutoCAD® software. Publishing improvements include smaller file sizes and TrueType font support. And new import and underlay capabilities mean you can bring PDF files directly into AutoCAD drawings.

Send an AutoCAD Model to a 3D Printer

Do more than just visualize your designs—make them real. Whatever you’re designing can be made into a physical prototype through a 3D printer, either your own or through a connected service.

Dynamic Blocks Easier to Author and Edit

Thanks to several enhancements, Dynamic Blocks are now easier to author and edit. With improved display of action objects and improved highlighting for objects associated with actions, Dynamic Blocks tools help you save critical time documenting your designs.
