The crosshair inside the pick box has been removed making it easier to see objects behind.Ĭontextual feedback is added as a badge next to the cursor or crosshair. This ribbon is new with the tools Glue and Clash Pinpoint. UCS icon, View Cube, Navigation Bar and Layout Tabs are new tools on the View Ribbon tab. Galleries are available for blocks, dimensions, mleaders, text, tables and table cells making it easy to preview, select and use them.

The COMPLEXLTPREVIEW System Variable controls whether a preview of the complex linetype is displayed during interactive operations like draw, move, copy or rotate.Ĭolor, linetype and lineweight is shown for lines and polylines when they are drawn. For consistency this should also apply to rotating and scaling of objects but it does not. When moving objects the objects in the original position are displayed with a faded deletion effect. This setting is also available in the Graphics Performance dialog box available in OPTIONS>System. This makes lines look smoother especially when drawn at an angle. Currently, the system variable applies to 2D objects in 2D wireframe visual styles. The LINESMOOTHING System Variable specifies whether anti-aliasing is turned on or off. The layout sheet has an updated look and 'Paper background' is a new interface element that can have the color changed on in OPTIONS>Design>Colors. Unfortunately there is no tooltip or preview image when holding the mouse over a layout tab name in the list. If there are more layouts than there is place to show an icon with two arrows is added and when clicked on it shows a list of all layouts. Hold the mouse over a layout tab and a tooltip show the name (useful when using long names for layouts) and the preview image shows the content of the layout.

Unfortunately it is no longer possible to drag-and-drop a layout while holding down CTRL to create a copy of it. Last among the layout tabs there is a '+'-icon that can be used to create a new layout. There are also a notification column informing about certain things like hardware acceleration, trial period and more.
