Next, it creates a results file that very clearly displays the areas where there are differences using Revision Clouds. First, you are prompted for the two files you select the files you want to compare. When you use the “ DWG Compare” command, it pretty much does exactly what you would expect it would do. The good news is, it appears that this is now easy to figure out. The “ DWG Compare” tool caught my attention as I have many times been asked by users, “ How do I know what’s different between different versions of a file?”. In the 2019 version of AutoCAD/Civil 3D, Autodesk has added a new “ Collaborate” tab with a few new tools. In the 2019 version of AutoCAD/Civil 3D, Autodesk has opted for updated graphics and after starting the program for the first time, I was immediately drawn to the fact that I could easily see what was on or off in the Status Bar.ĭoes this change the world, or will it be in the TOP 10 NEW FEATURES list? Probably not, but for me, it is something that I like and appreciate very much. Whether it’s that my eyes aren’t what they used to be, the screen resolutions is getting higher every year, or the icons used in the AutoCAD UI, keeping track of exactly what tools are on or off in the Status Bar within AutoCAD has for the last few years been difficult to know at a glance. Note: This is NOT a comprehensive “What’s New” list, just the things I appreciate out of the gate. Typically IMAGINiT will put together a “New Features” presentation, blog posts and whitepapers on the latest version of Autodesk software, and we will of course still do that, however, in the meantime, I wanted to make a quick post on a few of my first Impressions of Civil 3D 2019 and share what has immediately caught my attention.
