AutoCAD 2015 released

MANILA, Philippines - 3D design solutions provider Autodesk recently launched the latest release of one of the world’s leading computer-aided design (CAD) applications, Autodesk AutoCAD 2015.

With enhanced features, mobile and cloud accessibility and flexibility, the latest AutoCAD version provides the ultimate design solution to empower design practitioners to become more globally competitive.

Kelly Chong, Autodesk regional sales manager for platform solutions and emerging business in ASEAN, said, “AutoCAD 2015 is packed with a wide range of capabilities, with enhanced tools that will allow designers to further explore their ideas, better visualize them, and integrate them to a live environment.”

“In fact, we like to say that users can easily design every detail with the new AutoCAD 2015 software. Also, for the first time, AutoCAD will be available on a pay-as-you-use subscription basis for users,” Chong added.

One of the noticeable enhancements in AutoCAD 2015 is the ambitious redesign of the AutoCAD interface. Its darker and fresher color scheme brings out more vivid colors and minimizes eyestrain by making fine lines, buttons, and text easier to see, and also helps improve the design process.

The New Tab page feature also lets users quickly open new and existing drawings, while ribbon galleries save time and clicks by visually accessing drawing content directly from the ribbon.

“The other highlight of the AutoCAD 2015 version is that users can now easily connect workflows across integrated desktop, cloud, and mobile solutions. AutoCAD 2015 also has enhanced the reality capture capability by allowing users to bring in real-life data and models into the AutoCAD canvas. We have also improved geo-location services so users can now pull in live map data and design in a real environment,” Chong said.

Users can share their work with confidence using TrustedDWG technology, the original and most accurate way to store and exchange design data.

TrustedDWG technology maintains design data integrity throughout the entire workflow, whether users are accessing the file with desktop, cloud or mobile solutions.

AutoCAD 2015 is available in two versions: Autodesk AutoCAD which adds 3D modeling tools and point cloud support; and AutoCAD Design Suites which lets users extend their AutoCAD design workflow from pre-concept to completion with AutoCAD Raster Design and visual communication solutions such as Autodesk Showcase and Autodesk 3ds Max Design.
