FEATURES

Leading and collaborative CAD software from the developers of SOLIDWORKS

DraftSight includes a variety of features built for drafting 2D designs

Essential 2D Drafting

Create more accurate 2D designs with all the drafting tools.

 

  • Fundamental elements drawing, e.g. lines, polylines, arcs, circles, ellipses, tables, hatches, clouds
  • Use the modify tools to move, copy, rotate, mirror, pattern, scale, trim, chamfer, or split actions
  • Dimension tools for measuring and annotating the distances between objects
  • Import, create, and manager laters, blocks and external references, and output drawings to a plotter, printer, or file

Advanced 2D Drafting and APIs for Customization

Use APIs for automation and customization to expedite your production workflows

  • Eliminate manual or tedious tasks to save more time, with tools such as Drawing Compare, Power Trim, Insert Centerlines, Pattern Along a Path, Curved Text, Batch Printing, etc.
  • Image Tracer for swift conversion of raster images like floor plans and logos to vectorized line entities
  • Access to Toolbox, a fully defined library for all standard hardware (bolts, screws, nuts, washers, and pins, generate holes and callouts, create BOMs, and more)
  • Import and export all sort of file types and formats, e.g., PDF, DGN, SVG, XLS, and DSHBM (HomeByMe)
