BricsCAD Lite

2D CAD for fast and efficient drafting.

BricsCAD is built entirely on the industry-standard DWG format which makes it feel familiar, and highly compatible. With full command, script, macro, and menu compatibility - BricsCAD helps you utilise skills you already have.

BricsCAD offers unique tools to help you get work done faster, intelligently and efficiently. Many powered by machine learning techniques, these tools can accelerate tasks that can take hours through manual methods.



BricsCAD Lite is highly compatible with AutoCAD LT. There’s no need to change your printers, templates, blocks or sheet set layouts to move to BricsCAD. Command names, aliases, and system variables are the same in BricsCAD and AutoCAD. Menu (.CUI, .CUIX) compatible, macro/script compatible, and support file (.PC3, .LIN, .PAT, .DWT, .SSM) compatible.

BricsCAD Lite fully supports LISP, and is compatible with AutoCAD’s AutoLISP format. The advanced BLADE LISP environment allows you to quickly develop customisations that can dramatically reduce the time spent on repetitive drafting tasks.


What's New in BricsCAD Lite

In product Tutorials
BricsCAD now includes a new series of in-product tutorials to help users learn about the unique and powerful features of the software.

TABLEs: SmartCell copy
BricsCAD includes new SmartCell Copy functionality to simplify the creation and editing of data tables in your drawings.

QUICKCALC
The QUICKCALC panel makes it simple to perform math calculations directly inside of BricsCAD, with support for parameters and formulas.

QDIM (Quick Dimensioning)
QDIM helps you create linear dimensions by simply selecting the objects that you want to annotate.

ANNOMONITOR
The ANNOMONITOR system setting allows you to flag disassociated annotative dimensions, regardless of the style of the dimension entities.

Point clouds - added the Hexagon Point Cloud Classifier (PCC)
BricsCAD includes the Hexagon intelligent Point Cloud Classifier (PCC). This technology helps detect found objects inside of point cloud data.

Convert repeated geometry to Block Definitions
BLOCKIFY automatically creates a block definition and replaces all matching sets of entities with block references throughout your entire drawing. You can reduce DWG file size up to 90% by using Blockify to find repetitive geometry and converting it into block references.

The Quad: drawing, editing, and information near the cursor
BricsCAD’s unique Quad is a “head-up” command palette that predicts your command usage and offers one-click access to the command you’ll likely need next. Powered by machine learning, the Quad predicts the commands you will need, based on the unique way you use BricsCAD.

Automatically align copied entities
COPYGUIDED automatically aligns copied entities to relevant geometry using automatically generated guide curves. You can explicitly select entities to use as guide curves or let BricsCAD determine them based on the drawing elements in your selection.

Parametric Blocks: a dynamic approach to creating 2D Blocks
Parametric blocks automate repetitive tasks by allowing users to create one block instead of lots of similar, separate block definitions. You can create 2D block definitions using the same set of tools and workflows that you are familiar with.

Adaptive grid snapping
BricsCAD’s dynamic snap grid changes to reflect your zoom level. The adaptive grid snap feature lets you create, edit, nudge and manipulate entities using precise values without the need for keyboard entry. The snap step size adapts based on the current screen zoom factor.

Dynamic UCS: The power of the Shift key
With BricsCAD's Dynamic UCS, the coordinate system is aligned automatically with the entity under your cursor. Tap the shift key to unlock the UCS, allowing you to start drawing outside of the selected entity or face. 2D users can increase their drawing productivity further, by automatically aligning the UCS with selected entities for both 2D and 3D.

Autoconstrain 2D drawing elements
When creating parametric 2D drawing elements, BricsCAD enables you to intelligently and automatically apply parameters and constraints with just one click, applying geometric control quickly and easily for fast design changes and reuse.

Optimise drawing quality
OPTIMIZE corrects your drawing issues by automatically finding and healing inconsistancies such as gaps and misalignments which may otherwise be difficult to see, improving drawing accuracy and giving you a cleaner, more efficient result.

Manipulator
The Manipulator is a versatile tool that lets you move, rotate, scale and mirror selected entities. If you hold down the Control key when starting an action, the Manipulator will keep the original entities, automatically creating copies of them. The Manipulator can act on single or multiple entities at once.
