Lasso Selection and Other Methods to Filter and Select CAD Entities
ARES Commander brings a new selection method to save time. Use the lasso selection method to specify entities within an irregularly formed contour specified by dragging the cursor.
Associative Patterns (aka Arrays)
ARES CAD Software now brings array copies of the same entity along multiple lines and columns and lets you modify the pattern as you wish. Patterns allow you to replicate an entity following a linear or circular organization or along a path. These patterns are now associative. You can now edit them using grips or by a double-click on the associative pattern.
Markup DWG Drawings With Pictures and Stamps
Stamps can be used, for example, to indicate if your drawing (or a portion of it) is confidential, draft, approved, rejected, validated… etc
Custom Blocks – Test Mode Multiple Base Points and others
Equivalent to the dynamic blocks in other CAD software, you can use the custom blocks to create smarter entities, which size and look will adapt parametrically with additional grips. You may also include a dropdown menu to switch between different types and options for the same block.
Dynamic Blocks and Custom Blocks
You can use dynamic blocks created with AutoCAD as they are. They will keep their intelligence and parameters in ARES Commander.
