Six ways AutoCAD 2025 saves you time

Hatch

Hatching along a path can be up to 69% faster.
With the improved HATCH command, the new Path functionality removes the need to draft additional objects to define enclosed boundaries to get a hatch pattern to follow a path. This also removes any necessary remedial action, such as turning off or freezing layers to hide these objects from the final output—saving valuable drafting time and provides flexibility to use Hatch to create highlights that improve readability in your drawings.

Smart Blocks: Placement and Replacement

Placing and replacing blocks can be up to 67% faster.
With the Smart Blocks: Placement and Smart Blocks: Replacement (BREPLACE) features, you can save time when working with blocks. Smart Blocks: Placement automatically scales and rotates a block when inserting it into a drawing. Smart Blocks: Replacement helps you quickly swap a block in your drawing with either a recently used block or a similar block that Autodesk AI finds in your library.

Count

Counting blocks can be up to 70% faster.
With the COUNT command, you can quickly count and create AutoCAD tables with fewer steps when compared to the DATAEXTRACTION command. With COUNT, you can count all objects in your DWG, or specify an area within the drawing.

Smart Blocks: Search and Convert

Searching and converting objects into block instances can be up to 93% faster.
The new BCONVERT command can significantly save time when locating unblocked geometry to convert into new blocks—removing the manual, time-consuming process of searching for and converting blocks individually. With the help of Autodesk AI, this workflow also suggests converting these unblocked objects into similar blocks that already exist in your library, further expediting the block cleanup process.

Markup Import and Markup Assist

Incorporating markups in a DWG file can be up to 58% faster.
With the Markup Import and Markup Assist feature you can easily import, rotate, and scale raster images or scanned PDFs to suit the host DWG file—then allowing you to quickly convert annotations to AutoCAD text objects using machine learning.

Trace

Collaborating on design changes in a DWG file can be up to 64% faster.
With the Trace functionality, you can collaborate directly on DWG files saved on cloud-based locations to create markups. Trace provides a safe space to add changes to a drawing without altering the existing drawing. Each collaborator can
create traces in the AutoCAD web and mobile apps, then share the drawing with collaborators to view in the AutoCAD desktop, web, and mobile apps.
