What's new

TrattoCAD improves every week. Here is what changed, most recent first.

Review tools for 2D drawings

  • Compare two versions: added in green, removed in red, every changed area framed, next and previous change
  • Markups: pen, arrow, box, ellipse, revision cloud and text, saved as comment threads
  • Find any text in the drawing with Ctrl+F
  • Measure angles, radii, diameters and arc lengths
  • Full properties: colour, linetype, text rotation and width, hatch fill and area; click a value to copy it
  • Wireframe 3D now shows the outlines of curved surfaces

3D at studio quality

  • Smooth curved surfaces and only the real edges, also for meshes from any CAD
  • Studio light with soft shadows and ambient occlusion, dark or light background
  • ViewCube with 26 views and smooth transitions
  • Model tree: hide, isolate, ghost, exploded view
  • Measure radius and diameter of holes, angles and distance to a face; snap to circle centres
  • Two new 3D samples: a shaft bracket with pulley and a two-storey house

3D models in the browser

  • Drawings with 3D solids, surfaces and meshes open in 3D
  • Orbit, zoom and pan, standard and isometric views, parallel or perspective
  • Five visual styles, section planes, 3D measuring with snaps
  • Object properties with volume, area and centroid calculated on the server
  • A 3D sample drawing in the gallery

Video guides and sample drawings

  • Five narrated video guides, with captions: opening, layers, measuring, comments and printing
  • Sample drawings from four trades: architecture, MEP and HVAC, mechanical, construction
  • A reply you are typing is no longer lost when new comments arrive

Print to PDF, new website

  • Print to PDF to scale: A4 to A0, Letter and Tabloid, 1:1 to 1:5000 or fit to page, vector output
  • Shortcut P and Ctrl+P open the print window
  • New website with help center, supported formats and solutions pages
  • Sample drawing you can open without uploading anything

Layouts, properties and comments on the drawing

  • Model and layout tabs: switch between model space and each layout
  • Properties card: click any object to read its type, layer and geometry
  • Show only the layer of the selected object
  • Overview map in the corner of the screen
  • Comment threads open right on the drawing
  • Download the original file from the Share window
