• The easiest and fastest to learn professional 2D drafting system from CAD International with a learning curve significantly less than ever before. Training in RealCAD can reduce your learning time by up to 5 times that of previously taught CAD software. You will benefit from improved productivity and less downtime. RealCAD LT is more effective and more efficient in the production of 2D drawings than any other in its class.

• Whilst RealCAD is fast and usable right out of the box, you will enjoy the ease in which you can customise the icon and and keyboard shortcuts to give you even faster access to your favourite commands, or mimic the commands you are used to in other CAD software.

• A new easy to follow printable tutorial and manual have been completely revised to dramatically improve usability....and the video tutorials explaining all the major functions are like having your own personal tutor at your fingertips.

• RealCAD LT has the most versatile drawing features of any CAD software in its class. You do not have to be a computer guru to do task we believe should always be simple. New hatch patterns and line styles for instance can simply be drawn on screen and saved...no need to be a programmer to create them. In fact anything you draw can become an instant hatch pattern, line style or library object.

• Even bitmaps can be used as hatch patterns allowing for elaborate artistic results that provide clarity for the client and creativity for the user. For the first time RealCAD harmoniously combines graphics with precision CAD.
  

• Not only can you fill an area with flat colour, you can also provide graded tonal fills, blending any two colours creatively, adding depth to your designs.

•  Uniquely, the dynamic cursor will tell you just how far you're cursor is moving in real scale. This combined with snaps, grids and coordinate entry means no more guess work when needing absolute precision.

• Photographs and other images can be incorporated into your drawing sheets too, embellishing any drawing to the highest professional standard.

• RealCAD unique proprietary method of accurately locating snap points in a drawing gives total confidence that your line work is dimensionally accurate, every time.
  

• Use RealCAD LT with any Windows application such as Word, Excel and Photoshop etc, Combine drawings into your letters, quotations, brochures or web site publishing. You can even cut and paste between two or more drawing files at the same time, saving valuable time.
• Basic Windows Edit, Cut, Copy and Paste and Undo commands are also used for faster drawing manipulation within the CAD software.

• Have multiple drawings at different scales on one or more 'virtual' drawing sheets and let RealCAD automatically handle the size of text and dimensions to suit. You'll never need to draw to scale again.
• Paste multiple views on your virtual page and as one view is updated, all the related views automatically update. What's more, each view has its own layers that you can switch on or off to display different information without having to redraw a thing.

• Multiple 'sheets' can be open at the same time in a single file, keeping all drawings in one job together.
• Multiple sessions of the software can also be open at the same time allowing you to work between multiple jobs at the same time.

•  Complex line styles can be created just by drawing them once on screen and saving them for future use. Again, no programming skills required.

• Unlike any other professional level CAD software, RealCAD LT introduces the ability to arrange items just like desktop publishing software. Items can be 'sent to the back' or 'brought to the front' to make selected objects obscure (overlap) others as desired.

• Any dimension style you need is available including tolerance settings, arrow types and textural attributes. All elements of the dimensions can be altered and text can be moved whilst remaining associated to the dimension lines.
• Alter the object size and the dimension updates, Alter the dimension and the object updates!

• Layers can be named, switched on or off, be used to select desired objects, and can even be used to display different items in each separate view on your sheet.
• A convenient layer gives the user quick access to layer controls.
• In essence, RealCAD -LT's layer tools give you full control over what you see, locate and edit in your drawing.

• Colours are infinitely variable and can be used both for artistic effect and to differentiate parts of the drawing or line styles etc.
• You can even search for all items of the same colour when making sweeping changes to your drawings.
  

• RealCAD -LT's sketch and stretch technology allow items can be roughed in and later stretched to the desired size. Fast and easy.
• Basic library objects can even be parametrically modified by simply adjusting the dimension itself.
• Items such as hatch patterns & dimensions update automatically as objects are stretched into new positions.
• The unlimited undo and redo allows users to be quite carefree as they work, secure in the knowledge that they can go back to any stage in the drawing, not just to the last function. 

• Any drawing can be inserted as a library object (figure). These objects can remain linked to the library so that changes to the library object are instantly reflected in every drawing that contains them or they can be separated (exploded) from the library for independent editing if desired.
• RealCAD's 'Groups' allow any set of selected objects to be "glued together" as one allowing easy selection and editing inside complex drawings.
• Items can be ungrouped at any time or have individual elements added, edited or removed. Very handy when working on complex assemblies or even a group of related items such as a table and chairs that need to stay together.

• Scanned drawings can be imported into RealCAD -LT- where they can be accurately rescaled with ease, and used as an underlay for your CAD drawings. Ideal too for aerial photographs and site plan information.

•  Photographs and other Bitmap images can be incorporated into your drawing sheets too, allowing for complex logo's and illustrations as part of any drawing.

• For the most rapid editing of any CAD software, RealCAD provides a 'Magic Eraser'. Simply hold the Alt key and drag your mouse over the lines you wish to trim or delete and they magically trim or disappear.
