Streamlined 2D design

Convey every detail in 2D with dimensions and specific annotations while keeping 3D models clean and focused on design.

Comprehensive documentation

Create a comprehensive drawing set from one or more models. Combine 3D views with other data and visuals.

Seamless 3D to 2D

Auto sync ensures your documentation and presentation sets are always consistent with your latest 3D model.

Transition into and out of LayOut easily with robust DWG import and export and high-fidelity SketchUp and LayOut data when moving between CAD environments.

Store 2D and 3D design data, including geometric data, maps, photos, and annotations with DWG support.

Tags from SketchUp viewports are exported to DWG layers with Tag name structures preserved for consistency.

Export individual pages as separate DWG files with intuitive logic using file name, page number, and page name.

Accurately export polylines, text, solid hatch, and tables to DWG, with fonts and border settings translating to AutoCAD table elements.

Viewport-based documentation

Create multiple, distinct views of your 3D model on a single page with different camera angles, styles, and scales.

Scaled drawings

Precisely scale 3D model views to create professional-quality documents and ensure printed and exported drawings are true to size.

2D drafting tools

Tackle early conceptual diagramming to final detailing with a flexible, professional 2D drafting toolkit.

Annotation

Add text and labels to your drawings with information such as page numbers, dates, and file names automatically populated.

Associative dimensions
