New AutoCAD freeware and CAD add-ons

One of our most popular web resources is the CAD freeware page at www.xanadu.cz/freeware. We publish there our AutoCAD add-ons, free CAD utilities and other useful stuff for AutoCAD, Inventor and Revit users.

There are some interesting new pieces in this collection of AutoCAD LISP add-ons:

• InsertC - InsertC/BlockC is a general "block numbering" utility. You can incrementally autonumber both existing blocks and insert new blocks with incremented or decremented numbers.
  
• SplitArea - if you need to section an irregular closed area to half or to a number of parcels with the same acreage, SplitArea is the tool you need. You can use different methods to generate the section line(s).
  
• FieldLink - a small tool which visualizes dependencies between AutoCAD fields and linked drawing objects.
  
• Trans - this is a very popular tool for translating AutoCAD drawings. Just exports all drawing texts to a text file and then puts the translated text file back to the original places in the drawing.
  
• MoveAtt - moves a group of block attributes (relatively to the block position) - sometimes you just want to clean up a crowded drawing area.
  

No all of our utilities are free - but you can have them for decent shareware prices. Recently, we have updated our 3D publishing add-ons VRML Export and DirectX Export to support the 64-bit versions of AutoCAD 2010.
