Like AutoCAD, each drawing appears in its own window, identified by a file tab across the top of the drawing area. The new release also makes it easier to save your own custom workspaces. But as soon as you switch to the “Drafting and Annotation,” “3D Modeling,” or the new “CAD General” workspace, CorelCAD changes to a ribbon interface quite similar to modern AutoCAD versions.

When you first start CorelCAD, the program displays its “Classic” user interface, which includes pull-down menus and a host of toolbars with icon-only buttons docked around the perimeter of the screen, much like very old versions of AutoCAD. The latest edition features improvements to its 2D drawing and 3D modeling tools. The software is available for Windows and Mac OS as well as mobile versions for Android and iOS devices. Based on the ARES CAD kernel from German developer Graebert-the same CAD engine that powers Graebert’s own ARES Commander and Dassault Systèmes’ DraftSight software-CorelCAD 2020 uses AutoCAD 2018 DWG as its own native file format. Earlier this year, the company released CorelCAD 2020, the ninth version of its 2D/3D CAD software.ĬorelCAD is positioned as an affordable alternative to AutoCAD as well as a way to bring CAD tools to users of CorelDRAW. More recently, the company acquired programs in markets such as design, illustration and photo and video editing. Back in the day, Corel, a big-name software company in Canada was originally known for its flagship, best-selling product-CorelDRAW.
