InnerSoft CAD for AutoCAD is a plugin for AutoCAD that aims to ease the process of manually exporting data from the popular design and modeling application to Microsoft Excel, for further processing.
The package bundles a set of tools that can prove useful for performing specific calculations, measurements and estimations in your project. Once installed, it creates a new menu within AutoCAD, enabling you to access all its features from there.
InnerSoft CAD for AutoCAD is capable of determining the total sum of areas or lengths of objects found in your drawing, with additional filtering options for removing certain items. It offers you the possibility to easily extract an object's properties, such as its area, length or coordinate values and export them to Excel. Also, it can be used for importing 2D or 3D coordinate sets from a spreadsheet.
The "Measurement Manager" is the tool you need for quickly calculating lengths, elevations, distances, volumes, areas and so on, for one or more drawings. It features automatic size updating and allows the association of values, which helps you get a clear overview of the project content. Generated data can be saved locally or exported to Excel or XML format. It also comes in handy for survey engineering, providing the tools you need for drawing the longitudinal profile of a terrain or applying the Delaunay triangulation method to determine the location of a point.
There are various other options that this plugin implements, trying to improve your workflow. It can count text pieces and drawing blocks that match your search, manage drawing blocks, organize drawings into separate libraries, project multiple objects to a user-defined elevation, adjust the dimensions of an object to match a user-defined area or assign indices to object for easier identification.
All aspects considered, InnerSoft CAD for AutoCAD can prove to be useful for any designer that relies on AutoCAD for creating projects. It bundles advanced measurement functions along with Excel importing and exporting capabilities. It worked smoothly with AutoCAD 2017 in our tests.
