AutoCAD 2010 - Some of the new features include
AutoCAD 2010
With AutoCAD® 2010 software, you can tackle your
most challenging problems with ease. Your
designs can now exist in any shape imaginable,
thanks to free-form design tools. Many critical
features have been automated, making your
workflow more efficient and the move to 3D
design even smoother. Sharing and working on
projects with colleagues has never been easier,
thanks to multiple upgrades to our PDF
capabilities and the incredible addition of 3D
printing. With these and countless other new
capabilities you’ve been asking for, AutoCAD
2010 takes any idea and turns it into a reality
faster than ever before

Initial Setup
Easily tailor the AutoCAD environment to meet
your needs using Initial Setup, which is
displayed the first time you launch AutoCAD.
With Initial Setup you can choose your industry
as well as workspace and drawing template
preferences. The choices you make in the Initial
Setup affect the default settings of various
AutoCAD functionality, including drawing
templates, Autodesk® Seek filters,
Autodesk Developer Network partners, the Unified
Online Experience portal, and workspaces.
You can access Initial Setup
from the User Preferences tab of the Options
dialog box.
Ribbon
The
ribbon has been updated to provide greater
flexibility, easier access to tools, and
consistency across Autodesk applications. You
can drag a ribbon panel off the ribbon to
display it as a sticky panel. Sticky panels
remain displayed, even when selecting a
different tab, until you select the option to
Return Panels to Ribbon.
The vertical ribbon, which can be displayed by
undocking the ribbon from its horizontal
position, has been updated to show the tab names
along the side. The panel titles are displayed
by default and those with additional tools
include slide-out panels. When resizing the
vertical ribbon, buttons automatically flow to
the next or previous row and other elements,
such as slider bars, automatically shorten or
lengthen.
Parametric Drawing
Powerful new parametric
drawing functionality in AutoCAD 2010 enables
you to dramatically increase productivity by
constraining drawing objects based on design
intent. Geometric and dimensional constraints
help ensure that specific relationships and
measurements remain persistent even as objects
are modified. The tools for creating and
managing geometric and dimensional constraints
are available on the Parametric ribbon tab,
which is automatically displayed in the 2D
Drafting and Annotation workspace.
PDF Integration
Sharing and reusing designs has never been
easier,
thanks to a long list of upgrades made to
streamline
communication. Publish PDF files directly from
AutoCAD drawings and attach and snap PDF files
as
underlays.
