AutoDesk AutoCAD 2009 Upgrade Retail Box
AutoCAD® software—the world’s leading customizable and extendable CAD application—lets you design, visualize, and document your ideas clearly and efficiently. With AutoCAD 2009 3D CAD software from Autodesk, you’ll move to new highs of productivity. New software features accelerate tasks, allow commands to be easily found, and help rapidly train new AutoCAD users.
What's new in 2009?
Ribbon Interface
With the ribbon interface, overall drafting productivity is increased as the number of steps to reach a command is decreased. The ribbon interface presents command options in a concise visual format, allowing you to quickly select commands based on the work you’re doing. Moving between applications is now quick and intuitive. The ribbon is both customizable and expandable so that it can be optimized for each user and meet each company’s standards.
ViewCube and SteeringWheels
The ViewCube™ is an interactive tool used to rotate and orient any solid or surface model in AutoCAD. Selecting a face, edge, or corner of the cube brings the model quickly to that predefined orientation. Clicking and holding the ViewCube allows the model to be freely roated in any direction. Since the cube is in a fixed location on the screen, it provides at-a-glance orientation. The ViewCube will be introduced in all Autodesk products as a common tool for working with 3D models.
In addition to allowing quick access to the orbit command, the new SteeringWheels™ tool allows quick access to the pan, center, and zoom commands. The SteeringWheels is highly customizable so you can add walk through commands to help create and record a walk-through of your model.
Menu Browser
Reviewing and working with several files is no longer a tedious and time-consuming process. The new menu browser interface allows you to browse files and examine thumbnail images and provides detailed information about file size and file creator. Plus, you can organize recently used files by name, date, or title.
Action Recorder
The new action recorder saves time and increases productivity by automating repetitive tasks without requiring the skill or assistance of a professional CAD manager. Users can quickly record a task, add text messages and requests for input, then quickly select and play back recorded files.
Layer Dialog
The new layer dialog makes creating and editing layer properties faster and less prone to error. Changes are instantly reflected in the drawing as they are made in the dialog. The manipulation of the dialog box has been simplified, and columns in the dialog can be individually resized so the contents of that column or its title are not truncated. Individual columns can be fixed in place so that the rest of the columns can be scrolled through and referenced to a fixed column such as the layer name.
Quick Properties
The easily customizable quick properties menu increases productivity by reducing the steps to access properties information, ensuring that information presented is optimized for that particular user and project.
Quick View
The quick view feature uses thumbnails instead of file names, making opening the correct drawing file and layout faster and decreasing the time spent opening incorrect drawing files.
Take Your Ideas to New Heights with AutoCAD 2009
A new standard in CAD productivity began with AutoCAD® 2006 and its large set of drawing creation tools, including enhancements to tables, MTEXT, and hatching; a new set of user interface tools; and the powerful features of Dynamic Blocks.
AutoCAD® 2007 gave you powerful conceptual design, visualization, and documentation tools like solid and surface modeling, walk-through animations, section and flattening tools, and much more.
AutoCAD® 2008 software propelled your day-to-day drafting forward with features that increased speed and accuracy while saving time. Annotation scaling and layer properties per viewport minimized workarounds, while text and table enhancements and multiple leaders helped deliver an unmatched level of aesthetic precision and professionalism.
And now, with AutoCAD® 2009, Autodesk has one goal: increasing productivity. New features such as the ribbon, ViewCube™ and SteeringWheels™, and action recorder accelerate tasks, allow commands to be easily found, and help rapidly train new users.
Upgrading Made Easy
AutoCAD 2009 makes upgrading smoother with in-product migration capabilities that automatically transfer your files, settings, preferences, customized menus, and LISP routines from previous versions of AutoCAD software—helping you get up and running quickly.
Impress your colleagues and clients with compelling presentation-ready graphics created directly from your DWG™ and DWF™ files. Autodesk® Impression software is easy to use, saves you time, and recognizes data from your CAD files.
Autodesk Impression is available to AutoCAD®, AutoCAD®Architecture, AutoCAD® Civil 3D, AutoCAD® Map 3D, AutoCAD® MEP, AutoCAD® Revit® Architecture Suite, AutoCAD® Revit® MEP Suite, AutoCAD® Revit® Structure Suite, Revit® Architecture, Revit® MEP, and Revit® Structure software products’ subscription customers.
