Don’t want a building – want to make a road? Well no problems, the Autodesk Vault Civil 3D integration has also had a facelift for 2013.
Changes have been made here to the open from Vault dialog bringing Civil 3D in line with AutoCAD and integrates a more consistent grid experience for users with improved searching and file details.
In addition to securely managing surfaces, alignments etc, this release increases support for file dependencies to include point clouds.
Outside of the CAD integration itself, it's worth mentioning again that changes to the Project folder lifecycle control will now play a major part in better identifying the state of Civil 3D projects as they progress from conception to completion.
