The IntelliCAD Technology Consortium (ITC) today announced the release of IntelliCAD 10.1a.

IntelliCAD 10.1a is a maintenance release for version 10.1 that was previously issued on August 17, 2021.

IntelliCAD maintenance releases concentrate on fixes, but IntelliCAD 10.1a also contains these new features: import Microsoft® Excel® files; new capabilities when working with tables including data links, formulas, and cell formats; synchronize block attributes; and nudge entities using keyboard shortcuts. Many improvements are also found in the areas of publishing and sheet sets.

For IntelliCAD versions that work with Spatial ACIS solids, create planar surfaces and convert entities to NURBS surfaces.

David Lorenzo, ITC President, stated, “CAD users are appreciating the fast performance of IntelliCAD 10.1 which was released a few months ago, and IntelliCAD 10.1a continues with the new speed benchmarks while incorporating feedback received from our members. Here at the ITC, our members come first. ITC members task us with what their unique markets require, and we work to deliver it.”

IntelliCAD 10.1a is supported on Microsoft® Windows® 11, Windows 10, Windows 8, and Windows 7 64-bit versions. IntelliCAD Mobile Viewer versions are available for Windows desktop, Google® Android™, Apple® macOS® and iOS.
