AutoCAD allow designers to combine ideas with the real world with dynamic maps and new powerful features of the shooting the surrounding situation.

Autodesk for AutoCAD 2016 is more than a design.


Shape the world around you with powerful Internet-oriented tools AutoCAD - CAD, which is developed by Autodesk. The product allows you to create impressive 3D-projects, to produce working documents at a high speed and collaborate in the cloud. Access to project possible not only from computers but also with user mobile devices.

New features in version 2016


Enhanced PDF creation


Generate documents faster, creating small in size but more powerful files. Text of the documents is fully searchable and you can attach PDF-files to your drawings for better performance.

Smart dimensioning


Create adequate measures based on the context of your drawing in automatic mode. Move the cursor over the selected entities for the preview of size before it creation.

Excellent graphical representation


Browse more clearly the details of your projects with the help of such visual improvement as shading lines. Improved readability is created by using these curves instead of line segments.

The coordination model


Now you can attach and view the model Navisworks and BIM 360 Glue directly inside AutoCAD software solutions. Refers to the Navisworks model during design in order to avoid possible conflicts. Take advantage of an extensive support of format Navisworks to transfer the model from other applications in AutoCAD.

Tracking system variables


Prevent unwanted changes to your system settings. This feature notifies you of changes to settings that may affect to the operation with the drawings.

What's new

Enhanced PDF Produce documents more quickly with smarter, smaller, and more powerful files. All text is searchable, and you can attach PDF files to your drawings for better performance.
Smart Dimensioning Automatically create appropriate measurements based on your drawing context. Pass the cursor over selected objects to get a preview of the dimension—before you create it.
Stunning Visual Experience See the details in your designs more clearly with visual enhancements such as Line Fading. Readability is now enhanced with true curves instead of line segments. Minimize the need to undo an operation by using Command Preview, which lets you see the results of a command before you commit to it. Move and copy large selection sets more easily.
Coordination Model Attach and view Navisworks and BIM 360 Glue models directly inside AutoCAD software. Reference the Navisworks model as you design to avoid potential conflicts. Take advantage of Navisworks’ vast file format support to bring models into AutoCAD from other applications.
Sysvar monitor Prevent unwanted changes to your system settings. This feature alerts you to changes to your preferences that could affect your drafting work.

Documentation

Revision clouds Create revision clouds with more flexibility and modify them with ease. Draw revision bubbles around new changes in a drawing to quickly identify your updates. Whether your revision cloud is rectangular, polygonal, or freehand, it's now easier to edit its size and shape with a grip.
Refined interface The darker interface not only looks great, but it also reduces eyestrain. It's easier to see fine lines, buttons, and text.
Ribbon galleries Visually access drawing content directly from the ribbon, saving time and clicks. The Ribbon gallery offers a fast and intuitive workflow. For example, suppose you want to add a block to your design. Using the Ribbon gallery, hover over the ribbon for a block insertion. The Block gallery will display thumbnails of all the blocks. You can insert your selection right away, without having to use a dialog box.
New Tab page Get started on your design immediately with the New Tab page. Quickly open new and existing drawings and access a large selection of design elements. Open templates, updates from design feed, or design data residing on A360 project collaboration software.
Help window The Help window displays tool locations within the interface. An animated arrow points to the tool in the ribbon. This saves you time and keeps you productive.
Command preview Preview the outcomes of frequently used commands before you commit to them. Command preview helps you reduce the number of Undo commands you make by letting you evaluate the potential changes of commands such as Offset, Fillet, and Trim.
Intelligent command line The command line interface includes AutoCorrect, Adaptive Suggestions, and Synonym Suggestions. AutoCorrect spellchecks your input and offers suggestions from a synonym list, so you never have to see the Command Not Found message. AutoComplete supports mid-string search.

Design

Reality computing Orient your work more precisely with the point cloud. Maneuver between horizontal and vertical planes more quickly with Dynamic UCS. Snap to edges, intersections, corners, and centerlines to quickly create geometry using point cloud object snaps.
Online maps Access online maps (formerly live maps) directly inside the canvas. Capture online maps as static images and print them with your design overlaid, or create PDFs that include the geolocation map.
Surface Curve Extraction tool Extract isoline curves through a specified point on a surface or face of a solid to determine the contour lines of any shape. The tool displays a preview of the resulting spline before you pick the point. You can specify the direction of the isolines, either in the U or V direction.
Context-sensitive PressPull tool Extrude and offset curves, creating surfaces and solids. Use the Multiple option to select multiple objects within a single PressPull operation. You are no longer limited to clicking inside a bounded area: Now you can select 2D and 3D curves for a quick and easy PressPull operation.
3D free-form design tools Generate design ideas in almost any form imaginable with AutoCAD design features. Push/pull faces, edges, and vertices to model complex shapes and add smooth surfaces. Solid, mesh, and surface modeling give you flexibility and control when designing in 3D. The navigation bar includes frequently used tools such as steering wheels, view cube, and show motion, as well as pan, zoom, and orbit.
Surface analysis Analyze the continuity, curvature, and draft of 3D solids and surfaces. The Zebra analysis projects stripes onto a 3D model to analyze surface continuity. The stripes display continuously only across tangent surfaces.
In-canvas viewport controls Use new viewport controls to change viewport settings, views, and visual styles directly on the viewport canvas.

Connectivity

Design feed Use the design feed on an intranet, Internet, or cloud connection. The design and the conversation happen in the same place, but when it's time to send your final drawing, you have a choice. You can keep the comments intact, or strip them using built-in tools in the eTransmit and File Save workflows.
