Design
interiorcad makes full use of Vectorworks' solid modelling engine, providing a whole lot more than just parametric cabinets or parts lists. Want to visualize and then manufacture your designs? Then you are probably used to thinking ‘outside the box’!
Vectorworks interiorcad allows you to visualize all your ideas.
Vectorworks is fully object orientated and saves all stages leading to the geometry behind the final object. This allows for easy and flexible editing even after a document has been reopened.
Design development requires a certain freedom of thought. Experiment with shape and colour at your leisure but rest assured that any changes you make, won't mean a complicated rework of your models.
Technical projections such as elevations or sections are also linked to your model, so no need to worry about re-drawing. The 3D Model is the key ‘change engine’ in Vectorworks interiorcad.
So, last minute alterations are no threat to your work. Make any revisions to your model and your working drawings will be automatically updated.
This movie gives an impression of Vectorworks' flexible and intuitive approach to design. It was filmed and annotated in German but you get the idea.
- Shortcut Support for Modification Tools: Now the Rotate, Mirror, Offset, and Move by Points tools don’t require you to pre-select the object you wish to modify.
- Improved 2D Reshape Tool: When you use the 2D Reshape tool to make a marquee selection and hold the Shift key down, you can select object vertices even when they are over another object.
- Now more than ever, Vectorworks users are investigating the potential of 3D. As a result, you’ll notice improvements in the overall usability and reliability of 3D snapping. With the 3D cursor and new working plane graphics, you can reliably acquire your snaps, so it’s easier to select, modify, and align your objects in 3D.
- New Dimensional Constraint Manager: Make life easier with more reliable parametric constraints. The new and robust Dimensional Constraint Manager provides bi-directional associativity, so you can interactively make edits to either objects or their constraints and have the changes automatically reflected.
„We need the freedom to make last-minute adjustments. Vectorworks interiorcad has made our co-operation with international architects much more dynamic - production scheduling and assembly are now closely connected.“
