Generative AI is quite a buzzword, but that doesn't mean it's a fad. The architecture and engineering sectors will adopt this technology more quickly as a greater number of solutions become available to solve nicely bound problems – like classifying 3D objects into building elements and engineering system classes. So, how are we developing Generative AI in BricsCAD^®?

Although BricsCAD^® is highly stable and lightning-fast, occasionally, as with any piece of software, you might run into an issue. In the event you do find something not working properly, follow these guidelines to make sure your problem gets addressed quickly.

Crashes are unlikely in BricsCAD^®, but they can happen. Recreating lost files is time-consuming and frustrating – so we've got you covered to save you the pain. The Drawing Recovery Manager in BricsCAD helps you recover lost work after a crash in a few clicks, keeping your drawings safe and sound. Keep reading to find out how!

Have you ever opened a drawing and thought “Oh no, every block has exploded, this is going to take me so long to fix”? Or maybe the creator of the drawing didn’t even know what a CAD block was in the first place?

Then you need BLOCKIFY!

Slow, large and inaccurate drawings found their way to your computer? Then you need Drawing Health (DWGHEALTH). In BricsCAD V23, Drawing Health reduces the drawing size, removes unused styles, entities and layers, and improves the overall drawing quality.

BricsCAD V23 allows you to create 3D models from 2D sketches and maintain their association. The feature is still in the beta stage, so we rely on your feedback to ensure it lives up to your expectations! Take a read and learn more about how to use Sketch-Based Features.

In this blog, we show you how to use the Connect command in BricsCAD V23.

The Arrange command is an all-new feature in BricsCAD^® V22! Use it to spatially organize sets of 2D or 3D entities.

The Tips Panel has had a revamp for BricsCAD V23. This will help both new and existing users to get started faster and easier in a familiar, intuitive workspace. Read the blog to find out more.

In this blog, we look at the features in Version 23 which are intuitive to use, learn and adopt when our users draft and design in their CAD workflows. This amazing user-experience is driven by the way our development teams harness new technology, so we’ll also highlight our favourite tools and commands to give users extra productivity too.

For BricsCAD V23, we have revamped the Sheet Sets Manager. The first thing you’ll notice is that the Sheet Sets Manager has a new, more modern look. But that’s not all there is for V23!

Did you know BricsCAD V23 has a hidden secret? There is a new ribbon (Beta), with an improved look and added functionality. Read our blog to learn more.

The Interface Settings dialog is new in BricsCAD Version 23. Designed to help you make BricsCAD your own. It makes simple customizations, such as changing the color theme or panel docking system, a sinch.

In today’s ‘BricsCAD: Discover the Difference’, we show you how to get the most from CopyGuided and MoveGuided to copy and move entities.

Blockify allows a block to be created from a set of 2D or 3D entities, and then it looks for similar sets of entities within the drawing (or a defined area) and automatically converts those to the same block.

Are you concerned about how to choose and migrate to a better CAD solution? Then read here how 2D designers, 3D modelers and BIM developers can join the BricsCAD Lab.

In this blog post we explain how to print a 2D or 3D model in Paper Space in BricsCAD.

In this blog post we demonstrate how to print 2D or 3D models in BricsCAD with Publish.

Manipulator is a visual tool to give users dynamic movement, rotation, mirroring and scaling of selected geometry, without any command input.

In this blog post, we will explain how to use the BLOCKTOXREF command in BricsCAD from V22.2 onwards.

In this tutorial, we’ll demonstrate the Block Replace command in BricsCAD V22. To understand the Block Replace command, it’s first helpful to understand what a block is in BricsCAD. A block consists of a collection of entities that can be manipulated, copied, pasted, and, therefore, replicated through your project as you see fit.
