Sets the display order of all the fill patterns to back position from all other objects.

Creates a section object that acts as a cutting plane through 3D objects and saves the selected section plane as a 2D or 3D block. You can move the section object dynamically in a 3D model or in a surface area. You can use the active section to analysis model by moving the section object in the object. Create cross-sectional views that can be saved or reused.

Converts one or a bunch of selected drawing files to another DWG version available. The newly generated file can overwrite the original file, and it can also be compressed into a self-extracting EXE file or a ZIP file to facilitate batch format conversion of the entire project drawing.

New CLIP command clips a block, external reference, image, viewport, and underlay (PDF or DGN) to a specified boundary. It can be used to replace XCLIP, IMAGECLIP, VPCLIP, PDFCLIP, DGNCLIP commands.

New array options are available to create copies of objects arranged in RECTANGULAR, POLAR, or PATH pattern. The new array object is a whole (dynamic block). It can be dynamically adjusted by number of objects, spacing and other related parameters through Ribbon panel and Multifunctional Grips.

GstarCAD Collaboration Tool is an embedded plugin available for GstarCAD platform aimed to help CAD designers work together among a single referenced drawing file at the same time, control drawing revisions and manage medium, big or complex projects with ease and reliability, reducing communication barriers across different industries.

GstarCAD 2019 supports .IFC file format import. IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) is a popular format used in building and construction industry that provides interoperability between software applications. In GstarCAD 2019 you will have two import options as “Block Definition” with high fidelity data, and import as “AEC Object” that will be supported soon.

Now on the Command Line, after executing the Drawing Compare command (-CMP), you can input the old, new, and compared drawing file path conveniently.

The new Movebak command changes the destination folder for drawing backup (BAK) files. Once you specify a path, the drawing’s BAK files is placed in that path after every save option.

The new Viewport Scale command reports the real scale of the current viewport of a selected layout through the command line.
