However, due to the self-explanatory UI and intuitive design or menus and buttons, you'll get a hang of it quickly, even if it is your first CAD tool ever.Īs expected from this type of software, you gain access to both 2D and 3D manipulation tools, thus being able to do anything from creating a poster to modeling a fully furnished house all by yourself. A CAD tool with a surprisingly simple GUIĭepending on your experience level using such tools, you may find it more or less difficult to handle this app. One such program is BricsCAD Shape, which brings enough tools to the table to be relevant to both basic and advanced users alike. once in a while there comes a program that is either cheaper, offering almost the same amount of features.
However, most of the professional CAD programs will bring your budget back quite a lot. Starting with BricsCAD V19: Direct insertion of the generated point clouds into the drawing.Plenty of people around the world may find themselves in the situations of wishing they could do some fun 3D doodling, either for school, work, or down-right boredom.Automatic insertion of orthophotos into the drawing.Automatic rectification of images into the drawing.Direct measurement and insertion of cylinders and cuboids.Direct measurement and insertion of blocks with automatic block alignment.Create contour lines from surface models.Generate waterproof surfaces from 3D point clouds and 3D line drawings.Optimized merging of single lines to 2D polylines and 3D polylines.2D projection of a drawing on any plane.Direct measurement and drawing of 3D rectangles over 3 3D points with plausibility check.Direct measurement and drawing of 3D circles and circular arcs over 3 3D points with plausibility check.Measurement and drawing of lines aligned with the UCS.Simultaneous measurement and drawing of 3D trimmed lines.Measuring and drawing of 1 segment lines.Measuring and drawing perpendiculars with one measurement.Superimposition of a CAD drawing into digital images.
Since most CAD programs are optimized for designing objects rather than reconstructing them, ELCOVISION 10's CAD plugins provide numerous additional drawing functions optimized for measurement, such as automatic line measurement and 3D trimming, measurement of rectangles, arcs, ellipses directly over 3D points, etc: ELCOVISION 10 Tools Ribbonbar in BricsCADĮLCOVISION 10 is completely integrated into AutoCAD and BricsCAD, all CAD drawing functions can be supplied with measurements, plus the following functions are available: In the current versions of BricsCAD, such as V19 and V20, point clouds generated by ELCOVISION 10 from images can also be imported into the drawing with a few mouse clicks and further processed there. Thus these CAD systems become powerful Photogrammetric evaluation programs. This means, for example, that each drawing command such as "Line" is drawn directly with the coordinates from image measurements. All drawing commands of the CAD program become "measurement commands". ELCOVISION 10 is seamlessly integrated into AutoCAD and BricsCAD.
