Description
- Professional 2.5D Drafting and Detailing TurboCAD LTE Pro is the advanced version of TurboCAD LTE. More than an AutoCAD LT® work-alike, it's a professional 2.5D application that provides all the features you look for in AutoCAD LT, plus many more power features CAD professionals want. Plus great .DWG and .SKP compatibility make TurboCAD LTE Pro the perfect stand-alone solution, replacement product, or companion seat to AutoCAD and SketchUp with a seamless and integrated workflow.
- Low Learning Curve TurboCAD LTE Pro is designed to minimize switching costs for AutoCAD LT users, and protect your intellectual property in existing drawings. Menus, menu items, tools, and icons are easily recognizable. Familiar keystrokes, command line, palette interfaces and even an intelligent cursor have been incorporated for an intuitive, comfortable feel right out of the box. Plus, exceptional .DWG compatibility allows you to continue to profit from your existing drawings. So you'll be up to speed in no time, immediately benefitting from the advances in productivity TurboCAD LTE Pro has to offer.
- Affordable Innovations Enhance Productivity TurboCAD LTE Pro goes beyond AutoCAD LT to provide more advanced drafting and detailing capabilities. It understands and can import 3D files to create 2D planar construction views to complete your working drawing documentation. TurboCAD LTE Pro supports external references, or "Xrefs," making editing more efficient, and helping to keep drawings in synch. And support for customization through Ruby scripting and the Software Developers' Kit allows for all sorts of routines, features, or full-fledged vertical applications to be developed and added right to the user interface. TurboCAD LTE Pro also excels at parametric design with features such as parametric constraints, scripted parametric parts, architectural tools, and parametric AEC objects. Architectural users will appreciate the House Builder Wizard, architectural style manager, and intelligent self-healing walls that are ADT compatible. Plus, all users will benefit from lightning fast zoom and pan navigation performance thanks to graphic acceleration that can handle even the largest drawings.
- amiliar User Interface No need to re-learn what you already know. Install, start, and get up and running immediately without looking back. TurboCAD LTE's familiar UI lets you concentrate on creating design and not how to use the software. Toolbars - Standard toolbar and icons function the same way as AutoCAD LT. Simply click and let the drawing begin. Dynamic Input - Familiar heads up display with dynamic input at cursor. Command line - Need the command line? No worries, we have it. Common keyboard aliases and quick keys are already included too and fully customizable. Even the ESC key works as expected. Palettes - Tool palettes provide a fast way to access common and customizable tools with a familiar look and feel. Menus - Pull down a menu and find the exact command you want with no surprises. Call it CAD intuition.
- Hyper-Accelerated Graphic Performance Increase zoom and pan performance so you don't have to wait during a moment of inspiration. The powerful drawing engine takes advantage of GPU-based graphics cards for lightning fast wireframe displays. (See system requirements for more details.) The Redway Redsdk drawing engine in TurboCAD LTE Pro goes beyond available features in our basic TurboCAD LTE software with: The ability to customize the auto regeneration mode for arcs, brush styles, construction lines, curves, line styles, and any other black or white colored objects Support of the visual settings for the selection highlight in Redsdk mode. Support of Hidden Line, Draft Render, and Wireframe modes.
