gCAD3D v.2.35

GCAD3D is a CAD system for Windows with an integrated OpenGL visualizer and NC command interpreter for converting 3D geometry. Uses the GTK+ interface element library, which allows you to extend basic CAD functionality with third-party plug-ins and extensions.

Supports import/export of .VRML-, . SVG-, .STEP-, .DXF- and .IGES-files. Equipped with a built-in "geometry translator" allowing you to convert polygonal mesh "with one click", including - with the help of NC commands. Can be synchronized with Mesa, glibc 2.3.3 and GTK+ 2 libraries.

GCAD3D Functionality

• Imports "geometry" from .VRML-, . SVG-, .STEP-, .DXF- and .IGES-files, visualizes stored 3D model with 3D-OpenGL visualizer;
• Changes the location of promissory notes and converts the three-dimensional model according to user edits;
• Converts the polygonality of the "geometric mesh" using the NC processor, in the specified way;
• Interprets the entered NC commands and makes appropriate edits to the three-dimensional model;
• Syncs with Mesa libraries, glibc 2.3.3 and GTK + 2, and visualizes interface changes in the "task window";
• Loads third-party plugins and programs, interprets them through the NC processor and visualizes interface changes with the GTK+ library;
• Exports the result of the work in a specified format.

CAD features

• Supports third-party extensions, including custom extensions;
• Ability to convert "polygonal sweep" in the specified way "in one click";
• Availability of integrated NC processor;
• Full support for functional toolkit technology 3D-OpenGL and its own renderer, "written" specifically for this technology;
• Flexible functionality and its extensibility with the help of plugins "accessing" the GTK+ library.

Disadvantages

• Lack of ability to "print" blueprints;
• Interaction with other three-dimensional graphics formats requires the installation of appropriate plugins;
• Plugging in plugins to implement the possibility of using 3D graphics technology "conceptually different" from 3D-OpenGL technology can lead to "unpredictable results".
