Description

Introducing the newest iteration of our best-selling CAD viewer, which replaces both the CADwizz MAX and CADwizz LE models, featuring a complete rewrite for enhanced functionality. This updated version not only boasts improved stability and advanced 3D capabilities but also significantly enhances speed and overall performance thanks to its use of OpenGL and DirectX rendering technologies. There is no need for AutoCAD, as the interface is designed to be compact, user-friendly, and efficient. It provides robust support for the latest AutoCAD versions and is fully compatible with Windows 10. Users can effortlessly select AutoCAD files utilizing the integrated File and Thumbnail explorers, while the browser-style Forward/Back buttons simplify file navigation. The software allows for the rendering of 3D models in various styles including wireframe, hidden line, flat shaded, or gouraud shaded, and offers the choice between parallel or perspective projections. Furthermore, it facilitates hidden line removal during printing, enables direct access to zipped archives for viewing multiple drawings, and allows for redline annotations to mark up drawings easily. This comprehensive set of features ensures a seamless and efficient experience for all users.

Description

IDEA Architecture provides sophisticated 3D BIM modeling while maintaining an interface similar to AutoCAD, allowing users to utilize basic 2D commands such as polylines, entity snaps, and copy functions to effortlessly create 3D models with our extensive library of 3D BIM objects. By simply drafting floor plans with the intuitive and parametric objects found in our AutoBLD menu, IDEA Architecture automatically generates the corresponding 3D representation. With a quick double-click, users can access and modify properties of any object with ease. Differentiating itself from other BIM software, IDEA Architecture utilizes DWG as its core file format and offers functionality to convert 3D BIM objects into straightforward vectors, which can be easily viewed and altered in AutoCAD®. This compatibility makes it simple to share both 2D and 3D files with a wide range of CAD users. Additionally, our Architectural Software incorporates all the capabilities of 4MCAD, which serves as a viable alternative to AutoCAD®, ensuring a versatile and comprehensive design experience. By combining user-friendly commands with powerful features, IDEA Architecture streamlines the transition from 2D to 3D design.
