3D mode, on the other hand, looks more like 3D Studio Viz or SketchUp. AutoCAD, in ‘Classic’ mode, by and large looks like the last release, with the odd tweak here and there. Both feature different interfaces and rightly so. AutoCAD now operates in ‘Classic’ mode or a new 3D mode. It’s as if Autodesk has added a completely new 3D CAD package into AutoCAD. But fear not, the development team has done a great job this time! The last time Autodesk did a major 3D update was in Release 13, adding ACIS and breaking the product in the process. While not necessarily the main use of AutoCAD, being the 2D stalwart that it is, Autodesk has made a bold attempt to update AutoCAD in an area that, to be honest, was pretty bad. To date, the AutoCAD development team has done an impressive job of adding really useful and innovative functionality to what had become a fairly stagnant, yet universally popular product.ĪutoCAD 2007, released in March, is the latest and greatest release and, here, the development team has been exceptionally ambitious, fitting in major changes.
With each release, Autodesk has been working around themes and beefing up the functionality in specific areas, such as presentation, 2D and collaboration. A new version of AutoCAD every year is now the norm.
