This is in addition to the many enhancements included prior releases:
VBALOAD - loading of multiple .vbi files at the same time Editing of proxy objects – custom objects created in Autodesk applications such as Architecture, Civil, or Mechanical can be edited in AcceliCAD. This function is limited to those objects that will display. Reference editing of blocks and xrefs including dimming of non-selected objects
Custom Entity Display - used by third party applications such as AutoLINE to extend the power of AcceliCAD.
2D Projector – create two-dimensional drawings of three-dimensional objects
Right-click editing of TEXT and MTEXT objects
Full Compatibility with AutoCAD 2009 DWG file formats
Batch plotting interface allows the plotting of multiple drawings and layouts in one step. Different paper sizes, scales, and pen settings can be applied to each plot. Each batch plot set can be saved to a file for reuse the next time a set of printouts is required. System variable editor puts all of the drawing and system settings in one place with tooltips and help strings to make it easier to understand each setting. Configurations can be imported and exported to disk so that they can be transferred between drawings or different computers to improve compliance with office standards
Spell checking (available if Microsoft Word is installed)
Enhanced attribute editing with the new EATTEDIT command
Enhanced block creation with the new BBLOCK command
New Toolbar pull-down for setting viewport scale
New commands BTRIM and BEXTEND accept blocks as boundaries for trimming and extending entities
New objects snap “FROM” locates entities relative to a point
Quick dimensioning feature will dimension an entire part or plan in one easy step. Methods supported include continuous, baseline, staggered, ordinate, radius, and datum point. Dimension-driven editing, allowing a user to modify a dimension and see the object change to match the new dimension. Entity information window that displays relevant information about an object when the user places the cursor over it. This feature also works with ArchT objects to display the object type, style, and size.
Snapping to model-space entities from paper-space viewports Polar angle tracking
Floating prompt menus that put command options right at the cursor location
Heads-up keyboard entry that allows angles, distances and text to be entered without looking at the keyboard.
