127 commands

Quick reference

Expand a command to read its usage, aliases and scope. Entry links open the relevant command directly.

Public downloads: Windows v1.5.35 · Ubuntu 26.04 amd64 v1.5.36. Command captures show v1.5.35; support depends on the installed version and input objects.

DWG · DXF · external references

Open and edit existing drawings with layers, blocks and external references. Use a copy to check display, editing and saved results before working on an important file. Bring the fonts and reference files used by the drawing.

Support depends on file version and object type. Check the linked file path if an external reference is missing.

Keep the fonts used in your drawings.

Review and approve your own SHX fonts for import and vector display of supported characters. Compatibility varies by font and character; check your rights to use external fonts.

Copy repeatedly. Stretch selected parts.

Place repeated copies with CO (COPY) and stretch parts inside a crossing selection with S (STRETCH). Stretch selected line endpoints and polyline vertices, and preserve block structure when copying.

Check for new versions in the app.

The app checks the server for version metadata, release notes and a checksum. This displays update information and does not automatically download or install updates.

Prepare your own plotting styles.

CTBCREATE creates and saves color, monochrome and grayscale CTB presets alongside the existing CTB import workflow.

LISP

Supports selected AutoLISP syntax and CAD host APIs: SETQ, DEFUN, IF, WHILE; DISTANCE, ANGLE, POLAR, TRANS; SSGET, SSLENGTH, SSNAME, ENTGET, ENTMOD, ENTMAKE, ENTMAKEX; and COMMAND/COMMAND-S. Supported objects and input forms vary by API. Compatibility with VLA-/VLAX- Visual LISP/ActiveX APIs and protected binary LISP is not guaranteed.

Place your drawing on the sheet.

Choose A0–A4 paper and orientation in print setup, then enter a scale or use automatic fit. Paper, orientation and scale changes resize the print region while preserving its anchor. Review sheet dimensions and margins in the preview, and save frequently used settings with PLOTPRESET.

PAPER (PP) creates an A3 landscape boundary on a locked PAPER layer. Adjust the print region through PLOT print setup.
