Design Center
Share content among drawings
PowerTrim
Trims multiple, adjacent entities by dragging the pointer across each entity. Extends or trims two entities where they intersect at a virtual corner. PowerTrim works also on Hatches and Gradients.
Gradient Hatch
Display and create Gradient Hatches.
SuperHatch
Creates an area hatch using an image, a block, an external reference or a wipeout.
Tables
Display and create tables.
Raster and images Management
Display, create and edit DWG drawings with images, photos and raster images.
SheetSet
The Sheet Set Manager palette creates, organizes and manages drawing sheets within a drawing sheet set.
Constraints
Parametric drawing is a technology for designing with constraints, which are restrictions and associations bind to 2D entities.
Custom Blocks
(Dynamic Blocks Compatible)
iCADMac supports Custom Block, smarts blocks similar to Dynamic Blocks.
Custom Blocks support parametric size and shape and special grips and actions such as Move, Scale, Stretch, Rotate, Pattern, or Mirror. You may, for example, create a custom block whose size can be dynamically adjusted with a grip you can stretch, allow switching between different types of the same block. You can also create custom blocks with different states having elements that are hidden or shown. This allows, for example, to use only one block to show different options.
One custom block may replace tens of the blocks you currently use and would therefore significantly increase your productivity.
Link Excel Data
Link Table Data with Excel
The content of your tables can be linked with spreadsheets to update each other
You can create tables in iCADMac — however, it’s more convenient and flexible to use spreadsheet editors for filling in and managing the data. And sometimes you may receive a completed spreadsheet that you need to include in a drawing, but retyping or copying and pasting it is a tedious task. In both these scenarios, this new feature can save time and effort.
Now you can take all the data you have already entered in Microsoft Excel spreadsheets and reuse it in a table created in iCADMac. You can link to an entire spreadsheet, a predefined cell range, or a cell range in Excel.
Tool Palettes
Tool palettes provide you with a combined method of accessing tools. Tool palettes provide the best of both worlds, Ribbon or Toolbars. Tool palettes can consist of blocks, hatch patterns, commands or Macro and Lisp function. iCADMac have many default tool palette and categories that can be expanded or customized, allowing you to create one for your own needs. You can dock the tool palettes or have them float within your workspace or even another monitor.
Import/Export collections of customized tools and data previously created with AutoCAD® to ensure a smooth migration of your users to ICADMAC.
A tool palette combining ready to use blocks and preconfigured entities: not just a polyline but a polyline with a specific color and layer to represent a particular type of wall.
Preconfigure any type of entity: in this case, the line will be automatically assigned to a specific layer: “A_ Wall”. Other parameters can be predefined, such as colors, lineweight, or linetype.
