AutoCAD [Win/Mac]
AutoCAD is the global standard in the field of architectural design and engineering. With the rise of the Internet, and more specifically, cloud-based workflows, AutoCAD is one of the most popular digital tools for architects, mechanical engineers, engineers, designers, interior designers, contractors and more. In recent years, many architecture firms have moved towards using AutoCAD to design their projects on a web-based application, while others use AutoCAD’s mobile app in conjunction with an iPad, Surface, or Android tablet to view, edit, and send files to AutoCAD.
Despite the longevity and popularity of AutoCAD, in order to create and share complex architectural designs in this evolving technology-driven environment, users must navigate a complex, unwieldy and inefficient process. Below, we’ve analyzed the main problems architects have with using AutoCAD and analyzed how those problems have been solved.
Acronyms (Autocad)
“ I keep hitting the Enter key, it just keeps going down the page “
In AutoCAD, you need to press the “Enter” key to end a line or break and move down a page. It works like a typical computer keyboard. However, if you don’t know the correct sequence of keystrokes you can easily get lost in the “ enter “ dropdown menu, pressing the wrong key or hitting the Enter key by mistake.
In AutoCAD 2017, you can open a new page by pressing “Tab” twice.

Direct3D
Direct3D is a set of graphics APIs, D3D was developed by Microsoft. With the release of AutoCAD 2010 it became the default graphics API. Windows version running the directx software development kit, DX SDK was released for AutoCAD 2010. AutoCAD and other third-party software can use the DX SDK to integrate with AutoCAD.
 Technical
 AutoCAD operates on an AutoLISP-based engine, and the code that implements many of the menus is written in AutoLISP and compiled to machine code. The engine runs on a RISC processor, with RDRAM for the graphic memory.
 AutoCAD supports the printing of drawings, which was started in AutoCAD 2000. It can also be used to integrate directly into a web browser, as was done with AutoCAD LT, which can be used as a desktop drawing application that communicates with a remote AutoCAD LT server (It also used to be possible to directly connect AutoCAD LT and LT server to AutoCAD R14.)
 AutoCAD XML interchange format (DXF) is a major drawing format used by CAD systems for storage and transmission of 2D and 3D drawing information. DXF is included as a standard drawing file format in AutoCAD and is supported in other CAD programs.
 The C++ class library AutoCAD ObjectARX enables 3D-CAD programs to utilize components, code, and data written in other 3D-CAD programs as well as other class libraries. AutoCAD ObjectARX is the base of other 3D-CAD products such as AutoCAD Architecture, AutoCAD Electrical, AutoCAD Civil 3D and the Autodesk Exchange Apps.
Integration
The following APIs are supported by AutoCAD
 AutoLISP
Visual LISP (Visual Works Listener)
VBA (Visual Basic for Applications)
.NET (Component Object Model)
ObjectARX (C++ class library)
 DXF (Drawing Interchange Format)
If the Windows operating system supports.NET, then any AutoCAD application that uses AutoLISP can be compiled to.NET using the command.NETConvert. AutoCAD LT 3D is.NET compatible.
