The 150+ included 2D and Isometric 3D libraries for CAD6 contain views of standard parts and symbols. Use of the appropriate symbol library for your particular field will save you a considerable amount of time and will greatly enhance the quality of your work. Professional quality drawings will become even easier! For detailed information please refer to the CAD6 Standard Libraries.

Use your own plug-ins: By means of the programming interface (API), you can easily create custom plug-ins that open brand new possibilities. Program your own solutions or let us do that for you – just call us! For more information, please refer to Programming (API).

Furthermore, CAD6studio comes with a powerful programming interface which allows to extend the program with custom plug-ins. This CAD6interface is fully documented (description of the programming interface, the file format of drawings and libraries, sample plug-ins) and may be used royalty-free.

CAD6 is a universal 2D/3D CAD Software for Windows, but its main focus is on 2D drawing and construction. For this, CAD6 offers numerous features you won’t find that way in any other CAD system, especially facilitating the creation and modification of 2D drawings significantly.
