Murari Software Solutions announced the release of all new ProgeCAD 2025 Professional India version.
ProgeCAD is an AutoCAD® compatible 2D/3D CAD application that works with AutoCAD® DWG files from AutoCAD® 2.5 through AutoCAD® 2025, supports Dynamic Blocks (Advanced Blocks) support and imports Autodesk Revit® and IFC files! The best solution for AEC, MCAD and all generic CAD usages.
progeCAD sells with perpetual licensing and offers more CAD functions than AutoCAD® LT at a fraction of the cost of AutoCAD®, AutoCAD® LT, ZwCAD®, GstarCAD®, BricsCAD®, ArchiCAD® or Microstation®
PERFORMANCE
Intellicad 12.1 engine
The most recent IntelliCAD source code with all the relative improvements.
Hundreds of bugs fixed, new features and improved interface
Increased speed of opening drawings containing many blocks or external references.
Drag a .dwg file from Windows File Explorer to a tool palette to add it as a block on the tool palette
New Express commands QBREAK (Intersection Quick Break) and EBREAK (Auto Intersection Quick Break). Trim all entities to the intersection of a cutting entity in a single operation using the quick trim command.
NEW FEATURES
Advanced Blocks (aka Dynamic Blocks)
Transparently convert Dynamic Blocks to Advanced Blocks and moreover, using the block editor, you create and edit Advanced Blocks using parameters, actions, and visibility states as with AutoCAD® Dynamic Blocks.
You can use it to modify any block reference and also make them parametric in size and shape. The contextual ribbon includes features to combine special grips and actions such as Move, Scale, Stretch, Rotate, Pattern or Mirror. You may, for example, create an Advanced Block whose size can be dynamically adjusted with a grip that you can stretch.
You can also create Advanced 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 Advanced Block can replace many blocks. Combining multiple grips and actions allows you to create much smarter blocks. One Advanced block may replace tens of the blocks you currently use and would therefore significantly increase your productivity.
New 3D AEC Architectural module
Compatible with AutoCAD®AEC Objects. The new AEC package allows you to draw 3D architectural elements with a two-dimensional view in plan and takes advantage of a whole series of new Architecture style commands. The drawn entities are now specific AEC elements editable and configurable via the Styles management. By default it replaces our previous EasyArch architectural plugin which still remains available and can be activated with the variable AECMODE.
Main Features:
° Draw walls, doors, curtain walls, windows, stairs and railings
° Draw slabs, roofs, or roof slabs
° Walls and Slabs can be created by direct conversion of 2D entities
° Multi-level manager to assign levels to AEC entities.
° AEC Styles manager: manage & customize AEC Styles for Walls, Doors, Windows, Curtain Walls and Curtain Wall Units, stairs and railings, and slabs
° AEC Family – imports AEC objects style from external fam or dwg files
Rubber sheeting
New functions for image editing (Raster Design). Use rubber sheeting when you want two or more different data sets from different sources to align geographically: for example, when stretching a new subdivision map into a preexisting parcel map. Rubber sheeting is a nonuniform adjustment of a data set based on the movement of known control points to new locations. For example, data collected by aerial survey may be inaccurate because of flight alignment and camera inaccuracies. By comparing these data with the accurate ground survey data, the aerial data can be stretched or rubber sheeted over the accurate data using control points and objects common to both data sets.
IFC Export
Create IFC from DWG with the new experimental IFCEXPORT and IFCEXPORTOPTIONS commands. It is possible to include .rvt, .ifc underlays, and AEC Objects when exporting to .ifc files. Specify the IFC4 or IFC4x3 schema when exporting to .ifc files and set display properties for AEC styles.
Generative AI Drawing Translator
Powered by Generative AI , the new progeCAD text translator for drawings, uses the translation engine by Google® AI to translate all or part of your drawing, into any language. The translated texts do not change their nature, therefore the drawing remains normally compatible with all CAD-DWG software.
It works on Text, Mtext, Block attributes, Mleader, and Tables.It works on Text, Mtext, Block attributes, Mleader, and Tables.
New Printers in PDF via DWG to PDF.PC3
- more options and features. Also used with the PDF Export command.
New Express command CHBLOCKBASEPOINT
(Change Block Base Point). Change the insertion point of the selected block and all its instances in the drawing, without moving the geometry. Useful for correcting problems related to blocks with a very distant insertion point, or for being able to change its reference point to manage different situations.
New Express command INSERTPOINTSVALUES
(Insert Point Coords). Write coordinate values near the selected point entities. It is possible to configure the data type that will be reported in text.
New command TFRAMES
Display or hide the frames of all images and wipeouts. This command controls the settings of the IMAGEFRAME and WIPEOUTFRAME system variables.
New command RESETBLOCK
Resets Advanced or Dynamic block references to the default values.
New 3D command PROJECTGEOMETRY
Create a projection of lines, curves, or points on a three-dimensional solid, surface, or region using a direction you specify. You can project points, lines, arcs, circles, ellipses, 2d or 3d polylines, splines, and helices.
USER INTERFACE
Commands preview
When using the Offset, Trim, and Extend commands, you can see a preview of the results.
New Layers Manager Palette
Change the columns visibility, and restore the default display of columns.
Drawing area
Improved handling of model space viewports. Click and drag the border of a Model Space viewport to resize it.
Improved Quick Properties
With the customize user interface command specify what entity types and properties are visible in the Quick Properties pane.
Explorer Improvements
- Manage more visual style properties using the explore visual styles command
- Manage more layout settings using the explore layouts command
- Specify whether to freeze layers automatically in layouts that you create using
the explore layers command
- Manage data links using the explore external references command
- Change the column order, the visibility of columns, and restore the default display
of columns in all explorer panes
New command LAYVPI for Layouts
Use the layer isolate viewports freeze command to freeze the layers of selected entities in all layout viewports except the current viewport.
Use print preview for .pc3 printers
Toggle the display of the printable area boundary in paper space
