Key Modules:

First lets understand what to expect from this software in a general overview.

Features:

  • Sketch sections using
    Lines, rectangles, datum lines, and point
    circles, arcs of a circle, datum circles
    cubic Bezier segments, C2 interpolating splines
    text in a TrueType font, exportable as vectors

distance (or line length), point-line distance, diameter
projected distance, along a line or vector
angle, curve-to-curve tangency, parallel, perpendicular
horizontal, vertical

  • Build a solid model with
An extrude, lathe (solid of revolution), or helix from a sketch
Boolean operations: union (add material), a difference (remove material), intersection (leave only common material


  • Parametric and associative assembly
Link parts and drag them with six degrees of freedom
link mirrored or with arbitrary scale



Pros & Cons:

Pros:

Why Choose SolveSpace?

SolveSpace Autocad software represents all geometry in 3d; it's possible to draw line segments anywhere, not just in some plane. This freedom isn't always useful, so SolveSpace cad also makes it possible to attract a plane. If a workplace is active, then all entities that are drawn will be forced to lie on that plane. The interface consists of two windows: a bigger window that contains mostly graphics, and a smaller window that contains mostly text. The graphics window is employed to draw the geometry, and to look at the 3d model. The text window provides information about the model, and should even be wont to modify settings and numerical parameters.
