SoftPlan 2016 New Features: File

Curved Notes are included in DWG and DXF (AutoCAD) exports.

Images are included in DWG and DXF (AutoCAD) exports.

Import support libraries updated.

The AutoCAD to SoftPlan Conversion Wizard offers an unprecedented level of convenience for importing DWG and DXF file formats into SoftPlan.
Import a single drawing, multiple drawings, or an entire project by following a series of easy steps to convert simple lines into walls and other SoftPlan items.
Once you have selected a file to convert, SoftPlan creates a preview tab that automatically updates as you work. You can then choose which AutoCAD layers to import and how to import them, change wall lines into the wall types you want to use, cleanup wall generation issues, and convert imported symbols into SoftPlan symbols and openings.
In minutes, take a “flat” two-dimensional AutoCAD drawing and convert it into a SoftPlan three-dimensional “BIM” drawing complete with walls, doors, windows and symbols.

Close All command added.  Closes all open windows and returns to the Start Screen.

 

Navigation Groups have an underlined added for easier recognition.

PDF export libraries updated.

Search for a project by size, stories, number or type of rooms, address, or customer information with the new Search Projects command.

Icons added to tabs for easier identification.

 

 

With the ability to export models into SketchUp, SoftPlan 2016 offers even more room to realize the 3D presentations you envision while designing.

The quick and simple export process into SketchUp enhances your rendering capabilities by expanding the modeling options you have at your disposal. With the ease of use of both SoftPlan and SketchUp, you’ll be able to achieve unique renderings with minimal effort.
