Productivity
Quickly create professional projects with industry-leading design resources and features.

• Datalink command
  Insert tables into CorelCAD that are linked to data from XLSX or CSV files. For XLSX files, it is easy to link the entire sheet, a predefined named range of cells, or a range of cells from selected XLSX files.
• Industry-standard features
  CorelCAD is compatible with all major CAD programs. Get started quickly with familiar commands and toolbar items.
• Layer palette
  Easily access layer controls without leaving the drawing interface. Merge one or more layers into a target layer.
• Layer group filter
  Group all referenced layers from other drawings that are automatically created when attaching external references.
• Design resources
  Access and manage design components (blocks, styles, drawings, and images) for a variety of CAD projects.

2D design software
Your 2D drawings and designs can be easily merged with this feature set.

• Associative patterns
  Apply associativity in the Patterns command to duplicate objects and patterns along a path in the same perspective and quickly create larger, more complex graphics.
• Custom block functions
  Save a custom block (symbol definition) as a separate drawing with New CBWBlockAs, or test custom block definitions without leaving the Block Editor.
• Drawing Constraint Features
  See how the new constraint name format can specify how dimension constraints are displayed and how geometric shapes match dimension constraints.
• MultiLeader and Dimension Tools
  Configure labels and leader lines that automatically adjust. Create a new dimension style from a specific dimension and use the smart dimensioning tools to increase accuracy.
• Object catchers and handles
  Redistribute objects with object catchers, handles, and polar guides. Contextual context menus allow interactive editing of geometry.

3D modeling
Software with professional output, made simple with advanced technical tools.

• 3D design and editing tools
  Create wireframe geometry from the edges of a 3D volume, surface, mesh, or region. Use the new OffsetEdges to create 2D elements from 3D solid bodies or surface boundaries.
• STL file import
  Import stereolithography files (*.stl) to insert 3D objects contained within them. Additional modifications are now possible with prebuilt 3D design imports.
• PolySolid 3D solid editing and modeling tools
  Use PolySolid to draw 3D solid objects in the form of polygonal walls. Apply ChamferEdges to chamfer 3D solid objects, with Surface and Loop options.
• Transition from 2D to 3D
  Create a 2D design in CorelCAD or import it from CorelDRAW to transfer it to 3D. Extrude, rotate, or move 2D elements along a path to move from 2D design to 3D modeling.
• 3D mouse support
  Navigate in 3D with support for 3Dconnexion input devices*.

Annotations and collaboration
Effortlessly add recorded messages, reminders or instructions to your drawings.

• Drawing comparison palette
  Comparetwo CAD files and highlight changes in different colors. Designers can see edits, view collaborator options, and define workflow changes.
• Seamless AutoCAD compatibility
  Open, edit, and save files using the latest AutoCAD DWG file format, including the ability to edit dynamic blocks and save as custom blocks.
• Data Extraction Wizard
  Use the Data Extraction Wizard to specify and/or block object attributes and extract information.
• Support for CorelDRAW and Corel DESIGNER files*
  Import and export CorelDRAW®- (.CDR) and Corel DESIGNER™ (.DES) files to CorelCAD on Windows for a seamless workflow between CAD and graphics.
• Annotations and markups
  Insertrecorded messages, reminders, or instructions into drawings, and find and correct annotations that are no longer associated with objects. Mark or mask parts of drawings that should be excluded from annotations.

Compatibility
Platform support, printing capabilities, and peripherals make CorelCAD a standout solution.

• Platform support
  Enjoy a native CAD software experience on Windows and Mac, including industry-standard features and support for the latest operating systems.
• 3D printing
  Export 3D solid objects in STL format, the most commonly used file format for 3D printing. Print 3D prototypes with .STL support for direct connection to 3D printers or output to third-party 3D printing services.
• 3D mouse
  Navigate in 3D with support for 3Dconnexion input devices*. Rotate 2D and 3D drawings by moving the 3D mouse cap. Assign preferred navigation settings or custom commands to 3D mouse buttons.
• AutoCAD features and files
  Open, edit, and save files using the latest AutoCAD .DWG file format for fast collaboration with colleagues, suppliers, and business partners. Easily edit dynamic blocks from AutoCAD with .DWG file support.
• File support
  CorelCAD supports the leading file formats, including PDF, SVG, EPS, DWF, STL, SAT, SHP and DWS. CorelCAD for Windows supports import from and export to CorelDRAW (.CDR) and Corel DESIGNER (.DES)*.

*Ribbon UI, drawing tabs, import and export of CorelDRAW (.CDR) and Corel DESIGNER (.DES) file formats, advanced PDF options (bitmap resolution), support for 3Dconnexion input devices, and Microsoft VSTA are available only in CorelCAD for Windows.
