Description
Advance CAD is designed for anyone who wants a fast and efficient CAD program with all the power and versatility of standard programs such as AutoCAD® by Autodesk®, Inc., or MicroStation® by Bentley Systems, Inc., at an affordable price. Using today’s advanced technology, Advance CAD integrates the Microsoft® Windows® interface with a powerful CAD engine.
Welcome to Advance CAD®. Whether you’re a novice user or an experienced CAD professional, you’ll soon be creating drawings using the numerous productivity-enhancing features in the software.
Advance CAD provides unparalleled compatibility with AutoCAD, using most of the same file formats including those for drawings (.dwg files), commands, linetypes, hatch patterns, and text styles. You can also use AutoCAD menu files and run Autodesk® AutoLISP® programs. If you have written your own ADS (Autodesk® AutoCAD Development System®) programs, simply recompile them to link with the Advance CAD libraries. Many third-party ADS programs already support Advance CAD. If you have a program that is not already supported, ask your software vendor to provide an Advance CAD-compatible version of the program.
Advance CAD is more compatible with the AutoCAD program than any other CAD product, delivers additional tools with advanced CAD features, and has a seamless Microsoft® Windows integration. This powerful program provides a superb combination of features for CAD users like architects, engineers, and designers.
Advance CAD incorporates standard features found in other CAD programs, along with features and capabilities you won’t find anywhere else. Its multiple-document interface (MDI) lets you open and work with several drawings at the same time. You can easily copy drawing entities between drawings. In addition, the powerful Advance CAD Explorer lets you manage information and settings and quickly copy layers, linetypes, and other information between drawings.
Using AutoCAD legacy drawings
Advance CAD fully supports AutoCAD legacy drawings. Advance CAD reads and writes .dwg files in their native format without any loss of data, from AutoCAD 2007 back to Version 11, including AutoCAD LT®. Because Advance CAD uses Autodeskâ DWGä format as its native file format, no translation is required.
Advance CAD supports three-dimensional wireframes and surfaces. Three-dimensional drawings can be displayed in wireframe, hidden-line view, and surface shading. Some versions of Advance CAD also support creating and editing 3D solids; all versions display 3D solids, along with limited editing features.
Some versions of Advance CAD support displaying and working with raster images in your drawings. However, Advance CAD does not display images located inside of blocks and externally referenced drawings (xrefs). When a drawing containing proxy entities is loaded into Advance CAD, a message displays indicating that some entities will not display, however, the entities reappear when you open the drawing later in AutoCAD.
It’s easy to customize Advance CAD. You can modify menus and toolbars, create custom menus, dialog boxes, command aliases, and scripts, and add custom programs written in any of several programming languages, including DRX (the program’s Autodesk® ARX-compatible language), LISP (the program’s Autodesk AutoLISP-compatible language), and SDS™ (Solutions Development System™, the program’s Autodesk ADS-compatible language). There is also Microsoft ® Visual Basic for Applications (VBA).
You can run existing Autodesk® AutoLISP applications in Advance CAD with little or no modification. Advance CAD uses the Appload command so you can easily load LISP programs. Advance CAD reads files that contain dialog control language (DCL) statements as well, which makes Advance CAD compatible with dialog boxes created for AutoCAD.
