Affordable
For the first time ever, you can buy a heavy-duty CAD program that's
compatible with the .DWG file format and AutoCAD applications at mass-market
pricing. Other feature-rich, low-cost CAD programs have tried to create
their own standard as opposed to leveraging the existing .DWG standard.
CADian's low price makes it affordable to anyone who creates and uses
.DWG files

CADian
is Cost-Effective For
the first time ever, you can buy a heavy-duty CAD program that's compatible
with the .DWG file format and AutoCAD applications at mass-market
pricing. Other low-cost CAD programs have tried to create their own
standard as opposed to leveraging the existing .DWG standard. CADian's
low price makes it cost-effective to anyone who creates and uses .DWG
files.
Support for AutoCAD Command Line
By clicking the right button of a mouse on the toolbar, the command
line appears as in AutoCAD. CADian uses standard
AutoCAD commands for thousands of programs coded by AutoLISP, ADS,
and VBA.

Digitizer
Support
Many drafting departments have established routines using digitizers
within their CAD workgroup. For CAD departments that utilize digitizers
as input devices. CADian supports both tablet mode
for tracing and the use of tablet menus for command input.
Native
DWG Support,
dwg files (including R14 to R2004/8). As AutoCAD, CADian
uses native dwg files so that any drawings saved in AutoCAD from R
14 to R 2004/2008 can be opened, modifed, and saved without data loss.
CADian happens to open old drawings such as AutoCAD R 11 - R 14 drawings
more easily than AutoCAD.

AutoCAD MENU (.mnu) and SCRIPT (.scr)
files CADian supports AutoCAD menus
(MNU), dialog boxes (DCL), fonts (SHX), scripts (SCR), and symbol
libraries, so you can easily transfer custom AutoCAD environments
into CADian and continue working in your favorite drafting environment.
LISP Support CADian
provides complete support for AutoLISP, Autodesk's proprietary macro
language, as well as the Autodesk Development System (ADS), Autodesk's
proprietary programming language. CADian also supports DLL files and
includes a preview version of VBA.

Raster
Image Display (optional)
Image Enabler of CADian supports the image composed files such as
scanning files or photos of drawings. Supported formats are BMP, CALS
(cg4, gp4, cal, g4), GIF, JPG, PCX, TIF, TIFF, DAT, HRF, TGA, PNG,
RAS, RLC, BIL. CADian allows images to be attached
to a drawing using "detaching", "reloading", and
"unloading" functions. In addition, combining a raster image
and CADian's vector data generates a drawing and the order between
the vector data and raster image can be controlled.
Productivity
Features
Fly-Over Snapping
— a visual aid to help you see and use entity snaps more efficiently.
Photorealistic 3D Rendering
(optional) — CADian lets you easily create 3D designs using
the 3D drawing tools. You can display hidden-line, shaded, or fully
rendered versions of your 3D models or your existing 3D libraries
with a click of a button. You can choose professional-quality, preset
options for lighting, surface materials, and backgrounds. With CADian's
sophisticated raytracing capabilities, you can produce photorealistic
3D renderings. (Requires license of rendering technology from Lightwork
Design).
  
ActiveX Support
including in-place editing — CADian provides in-place editing
of Microsoft objects written in Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel.
In-place Editing enables you to share data with different users and
programs For instance, CADian drawings can be inserted in Microsoft
Word or Excel documents and can include Word or Excel documents. Furthermore,
double-clicking enables data editing.
Drawing Explorer
for managing layers, blocks, line types, and more — CADian Explorer
has the similar interface of Windows Explorer so that users can find
layers, line types, text styles, blocks, view, coordinates(UCS) and
so forth in a drawing and manage them very easily. In other words,
necessary elements from opened drawings can be copied, moved or removed
to other drawings.
Graphical Block Preview
— If an opened drawing has blocks, CADian Explorer shows blocks'
shapes and indicates how many blocks are inserted in the drawing;
and therefore users can work on drawings more precisely.
Work with Multiple Open
Drawings (MDI) — CADian can open an unlimited
number of drawings in an individual session with less memory. Selecting
a file in a dialog by choosing [Open] from [File]
or dragging a drawing file into CADian, you can open drawings simultaneously,
and increase the efficiency of work. Furthermore, among the opened
drawings, users can Copy, Cut, and Paste
a certain part from a drawing to other drawings.
Real Time Pan & Zoom
— CADian allows users to work with their drawings using Real
Time Pan and Zoom. This functionality makes viewing and navigating
around your .DWG drawing files easier and more productive.
Right-Click to Edit Properties
of multiple selected entities — With CADian, you can modify
the properties of more than one entity at a time. For example, you
might use CADian's "Entprop" command to select
all entities on a particular layer, then use the Layer text box to
move those entities to another layer. You could also change all the
entities in one color to another color.
Script Recorder
— Like a macro in Word, a script mimics what you type, including
command names, options and coordinates. CADian fully supports scripting.
In fact, it reads and writes the same script files (.SCR) that work
in AutoCAD. CADian, however, provides several scripting enhancements
that vastly improve your productivity:
An
automatic launch feature: Double-click an SCR
script file in Windows Explorer and you'll open CADian and run the
script instantly.
A
script recorder: Use the script recorder to
automatically capture your keystrokes and mouse actions including
menu picks, toolbar button selections, and screen picks. To review
the script, simply play it back.
A
script append feature: Use this feature to
add new scripts to existing ones.
Enhanced
scripting commands:
CADian's commands include Recscript, which begins the recording,
and Stopscript, which stops any script that's running.
Unlimited Undo/Redo
Go ahead and try out all your drawing ideas. CADian lets you "Undo"
and "Redo" an unlimited number of editing actions. (With
AutoCAD, you can "Undo" an unlimited number of actions,
but you can only "Redo" one.)
Visual Basic
for Applications (VBA) (optional, COM is standard)
CADian includes a full implementation of Microsoft Visual Basic, Applications
Edition (VBA), a development environment that simplifies the creation
and execution of Visual Basic applications.
Visual
Customization of Menus and Toolbars
CADian supports AutoCAD menus (MNU), dialog boxes (DCL), fonts (SHX),
scripts (SCR), and symbol libraries, so you can easily transfer custom
AutoCAD environments into CADian and continue working in your favorite
drafting environment. CADian menus, function keys, and command aliases
are able to be redefined by using a mouse and toolbars being changable
by drag-and-drop.
