ZWDirect is pleased to announce the availability of ZWCAD 2020.
 
The new release brings a compelling collection of new features and improvements – adding up to unprecedented speed, richness, and stability for a CAD solution. All while, of course, retaining ZWCAD's leadership in affordability.

The highlights:
​
  • UNPRECEDENTED SPEED: 150% faster on most common commands thanks to multicore processing and a small executable footprint – for example, the load time of a 180M drawing is reduced from 50s to 18s.
  • MANAGE PDF OVERLAYS: from a single dialog box, users can attach, detach, open, or check the attributes of PDF Underlays.
  • ANNOTATION SCALE LIST RESET: the system will notify users when an excess of annotation scales in a set of drawings is degrading performance and allow for a list reset to remove unused scales and improve performance.
  • DATA EXTRACTION: users can extract properties and data from objects to a drawing table or export to a spreadsheet.
  • LISP DEBUGGER: developers can visually and interactively debug their LISP customizations and applications.
  • IMPROVEMENTS: the release contains dozens of improvements to existing capabilities, including: hatch coloring, easy selection of overlapped objects, toolbar resizing, smoother text explosion, find/replace text, and over 25 additions to the API.
  • CONTINUED STABILITY: stability remains a top priority for ZWCAD and this release contains dozens of fixes and, was rigorously tested, and achieved a stability rating of over 99.84% on 1270 customer-submitted drawings that previously caused crashes.​​​
