CADaddy 0.7.8: a .cdy ⇄ DWG converter, a security round, IFC export, IMAGETRACE, the Count and Select Color palettes, touch and pens, and tear-off drawing windows.

Downloads

Installed copies of 0.7.5 and later offer this update on their own.

Files

  • .cdy ⇄ DWG converter in the app, and cadaddy-cli converts whole folders and plots a folder to PDFs.
  • DWG keeps more of what other programs wrote; multileaders round-trip; exchange notes list what a DWG/DXF save couldn't keep, feature by feature.
  • IFC export; Redline markups; .cdy carries the 3D model (meshes, textures, lightmap, tours); Publish Walkthrough makes a package the web build opens straight into Walk.
  • Big drawings: million-object drawings, .cdy and large DXF files read on all cores, faster startup.

Drafting and tools

  • IMAGETRACE: raster plans to lines, arcs, circles, wall pairs and text boxes.
  • Count palette (block counts, highlight and zoom, similar copies, live count tables) and Select Color (HSL/RGB sliders, hex, Color Books).
  • Purge dialog with a per-item tree; TEXTALIGN; Quick Properties and multi-edit of mixed selections; layer tools (LAYWALK, LAYVPI, viewport overrides).
  • PLOTSTAMP with its dialog, and batch plotting; geographic location (GEOGRAPHICLOCATION, LATLONG); DIMREGEN; text masks over hatches and images.
  • AutoLISP DCL dialogs; custom user interface files; an action recorder.

Interface

  • Touch screens and pens: pinch, two-finger pan, long press, a touch bar.
  • Tear-off drawing windows: drag a drawing tab out into its own window.
  • Arabic: dialog contents now mirror right to left too.
  • File names ignore case and accept backslashes everywhere.

Security

  • Signed updates: each release carries SHA256SUMS and its signature; the updater checks both before installing.
  • The control port and the MCP connector are locked down; hyperlinks, xrefs and packages can't be used against you; AutoLISP and scripts load only from trusted locations.
  • The file readers are hardened and fuzzed; SECURITY.md explains how to report a problem; PRIVACY.md lists every request CADaddy makes.

For agents

  • drawing_summary and drawing_query for unfamiliar drawings; execute_many runs many commands as one undo step; watch_events streams what happens in the app.
  • Safety rails: one undo step per request, dry runs, confirmations and a change journal.

Fixes

  • BOUNDARY and AUTOCONSTRAIN no longer stall on busy drawings.
  • Commands an agent types now show in the command history.
  • Find and Replace fields are named for screen readers; the .cdy preview builds fast on densely hatched plans.
