RealCADD is a CAD drawing program that allows you to draw, move, edit, modify lines, rectangles, ovals, text, arcs, polygons, and free lines. It also supporting filling and hatching of the shapes.
RealCADD is available in 2 versions, Standard ($95) and Professional ($135, Pro version only for Mac OS X). In Pro version, RealCADD can read and write DWG files from V12 to 2005.
If you're looking for a true vector based Computer Assisted Drawing program that's reasonably priced... Then RealCADD is made for you. RealCADD works like "MacDraw" but with many more possibilities of which reading and writing DXF files and the importation of images in the drawings.
new contextual menu (right clic) of tools when no object selected, in addition of the contextual menu "Action" when objects selected. The tools displayed in this menu are chosen in the preferences;
possibility of validating the data entered in the pallet "Edit" during the creation of an object, so a polygon can be created only with the keyboard segment after segment. It is better to be in "Clic-clic" drawing mode;
possibility to edit a string by a double clic with the tool Arrow;
in "Select special", select of "nul" strings, i.e. empty or only with spaces;
new short cut key for "Send backward" & "Put in front of";
with the keys Alt (or Option) and Arrow (up or down), you can change the active layer's layout;
possibility to use the key "Escap" to stop the creation of object;
ANONYMOUS as an engineer, i am well informed about the cad apps. that are available that time. some are pure nonsense (e.g. realcadd, sorry), others expensive and/or non-intuitive... and none can be found that works exactly like my beloved classic 2D ClarisCAD.
CAD DADDY ......I want to urge the developer to stop what he is doing......crap like this will only damage the mac platform......buy real progs like Vectorworks and Cinema 4d and ditch joke apps like this....... (Version 3.5)
NCIANCA Now I've seen it all. A CAD program written in RealBasic (which makes it RealSlow). Seems to have the standard features of a CAD program, but it crashes continously and frankly seems rather expensive. For a "budget" CAD program, check out CADintosh or the Claris Draw like Intaglio.
