Professional CAD

GENESYS's built-in CAD system includes features you might not expect in lighting design software - but should. These include multiple undo/redo, multiple object snaps, command line interface, dynamic CAD views (including pan, orbit, dolly, tilt, and a full selection of zooms), multiple UCS and construction planes for 3D drawing.

CAD Views

Much more than just a view, GENESYS's CAD views allow you to select objects (even when in perspective mode), edit objects, and place objects.

Advanced features such as object snaps, multiple undo/redo, and dynamic viewing (pan, orbit, dolly, tilt, zooms, etc) make model building easy.

Layer Management

Geometry is arranged by layers to make selection, editing, and material application easy.

You can add your own layers to organize your project.

Advanced Surface Creation Tools

Advanced extrusion tools, revolve tools, and other surface creation tools allow you to create and edit complex geometry.

Some tools, such as polygon to mesh, allow you to build models tuned for better display and calculation speed. Something you won't find in AutoCAD.

Block Replacement

With this feature you can identify any named blocks imported from your DXF or DWG files (such as lighting fixture symbols) and replace them with GENESYS objects, such as luminaires. This can save you hours of time and makes full use of the information already in the CAD files you import
