Just some of EasyCAD 32's features:
- True 32-bit
technology still crafted in assembly language for unsurpassed
speed and reliability
- Intuitive
drawing commands like: lines, circles, arcs, ellipses, offsets,
inserts, and dimensions help you create professional layouts
promptly with little effort.
- EasyCAD lets
you use Windows True Type fonts for maximum presentation
quality, or vector fonts for precision appearance and conversion
compatibility. You can see the actual text while you size
and rotate to place it exactly where you want it.
- Quick and
uncomplicated product installation using as little as 20MB
hard disk space and 16MB RAM (Windows 98).
- Multiple UNDO/REDO/FLIP
allow you to try different concepts, then UNDO until you
are back to your original idea.
- Page and Window
setup can be unique for each drawing you create, whether
you change the color palette, use inches instead of meters,
or rename the menu for a special job. EasyCAD remembers
it all!
- Automatically
updates all ECW and FCD drawing files. Simply double to
open and use.
- Editing is
a snap when you use the powerful Dynamic Edit commands to
modify your design without redrawing parts -- just pick
the problem area and stretch it into place.
- Attach File
Notes to a drawing or use the Template command to define
favorite page layouts for future drawings.
- With the Convert
command, import or export DXF and DWG files including AutoCAD
r.2 - 2004+ (EasyCAD v7)
- User-customizeable
macros, menus, and toolbar with ToolTips allow you to tailor
EasyCAD for maximum efficiency. Time-consuming tasks are
made quick and easy with professional results.
- Associative
dimensions can be drawn with tolerances, center marks, and
multiple style sets.
- New and more
powerful modifiers such as LIKE and KEEPLIKE make precision
drawing and dimensioning a natural part of the CAD process.
