Ashampoo 3D CAD Professional 12 is the all-in-one CAD solution for designers, drafters, as well as interior and landscape architects. The software covers all aspects of planning, visualization, and calculation—no additional programs required. A clean, thematically organized interface provides quick access to all functions. Importing SketchUp and Collada files gives users access to millions of additional objects for highly detailed and customized designs. Photovoltaic tools enable precise planning for rooftop and flat roof solar installations. Facades can be efficiently created using grid elements. Projects can be exported to PDF, RTF, or Excel for cost calculation and offer preparation. Full support for 2D DXF and DWG file import/export is included. New in version 12 is a powerful assistant for electrical planning. Outlets, switches, and lighting fixtures can now be placed quickly and precisely. Predefined room types, automatic room analysis, and customizable templates streamline the planning process. Custom electrical symbols can be added, organized in custom folders, and shown on a separate layer. The assistant also generates a parts list for complete documentation. Additional new features include advanced door models, such as sliding doors with asymmetric wall openings for more realistic and modern layouts. Improved 2D drawing tools, like arrowed lines and rounded rectangles, enhance visual clarity. Furthermore, doors and windows can now be replaced instantly with a single click, allowing for more flexible and efficient design adjustments.
