Welcome to Vectorworks® software—a CAD and BIM program that includes all the 2D and 3D tools and technology you need in one easy-to-use, cost-effective package. In addition to precision drafting, it provides powerful tools for 3D modeling that can be used to create, present, and even manufacture designs. Built-in database and worksheet capabilities help track costs and materials. A host of import and export formats makes it easy to share files.
The Vectorworks Fundamentals product includes extensive symbol libraries, default drawing resources, and a built-in scripting environment that can be used to automate routine tasks. Renderworks® is a plug-in product that allows you to create beautiful photo-realistic, hand-drawn, or schematic rendered views of your designs.
The Vectorworks Design Series software is a complete design and production management system for architects, landscape architects, lighting designers, and mechanical engineers. Vectorworks Design Series software includes the following products: Architect, Landmark, Spotlight, and Designer. Some features in the Vectorworks Design Series software expand upon core Vectorworks Fundamentals or Renderworks product functionality.
The Vectorworks Designer product includes the combined feature set of the Vectorworks Architect, Landmark, and Spotlight products. Therefore, it is not necessary to document each individual feature as belonging to the Vectorworks Designer product. The Designer workspace contains a major subset of the entire combined feature set.
Summaries of the new software features for all products are located in New Features. Descriptions of documentation improvements can be found in Documentation Improvements.
