GstarCAD 2025 is released

GstarCAD 2025 official version from Gstarsoft has been released with new features and enhancements that improve user experience, software performance, and boost design efficiency. 

Elevated Performance 

GstarCAD 2025 gives enhanced user experience, compatibility, customization and automation. Incremental Save is introduced in GstarCAD 2025, boosting SAVEAS and QSAVE speed, as well as drawing opening speed. TRIM and EXTEND command performance on complex drawings is improved, and HATCH display precision is also enhanced, eliminating excess lines in gradient and transparent hatch, ensuring an efficient workflow.

Enhanced PASTESPEC Command

The PASTESPEC command is used to paste objects from clipboard to the current drawing and control data formats. After copying data from an Excel worksheet to the clipboard, you can execute the PASTESPEC command and select ‘Paste Link’ to paste the Excel data as ‘DWG Entities’. After the insertion, you can modify the table. A data link is created automatically and the link can be updated using DATALINKUPDATE command.

Lasso Selection 

Lasso selection allows you to create an irregularly shaped window or crossing selection set, which is beneficial when selecting objects in complex drawings. Window Selection has also been optimized by adding Fence, Window Polygon and Crossing Polygon options.

Dimensions Simplified

Dimensions are commonly used in CAD drawings, which makes it inconvenient for users to switch between different commands. Now with GstarCAD 2025, you don’t have to do that; you can simply execute the DIM command, move the cursor over objects to preview dimensions and then click the confirm the placement of dimensions.

Manage License Efficiently

GstarCAD 2025 provides users with an enhanced system to manage license safely and efficiently. Users will be notified of any available upgrades for USB standalone dongle or subscription expiration. Number of real-time users is also displayed for GstarCAD Network License Manager. 

What’s New in GstarCAD 2025

GstarCAD 2025 has included some new features that boost efficiency and improve user experiences, including Hardware Acceleration, Parametric Constraints, BIM Data Editing, 3D Mouse Device Adaption, Voice Annotation, Break at Point, DWGUNITS, Application Manager, API, etc. 

Parametric Constraints

GstarCAD 2025 introduces Parametric Constraints, focusing exclusively on geometric constraints this year. Geometric constraints manage how objects relate to others, enabling automatic adjustments to other objects when changes are made, ensuring design precision and efficiency. 

3D Mouse Device Adaption

GstarCAD 2025 supports the SpaceMouse and CadMouse by 3Dconnexion. You can manipulate 2D views and 3D perspectives using the controller's joystick, switch views and execute commands using the mouse’s shortcut keys, and you can also customize the mouse button configurations within the driver software for these devices.

Voice Annotation 

GstarCAD 2025 supports Voice Annotation now. You can easily create, record, play, and manage voice annotations through the Voice Manager panel.
