After a series of versions featuring the addition of important features, such as layer management, automatic frames, PDF file conversion, advanced DWG-DXF management and more, this version of Domus.Cad is characterised by a long work of optimisations and improvements of what has been done so far. This work has also been done thanks to our…
Undo-Redo management Until the previous version, the number of Undo-Redo operations was unlimited, i.e. it was possible to undo and eventually redo an indefinite number of operations. Each operation is kept in memory to be subsequently cancelled, this for complex projects can lead, as the work proceeds, to a memory occupation which can slow down…
Map2Cad is a module of Domus.Cad Pro and Std, which enables you to import both satellite and road maps from Google Maps.
Maps are imported with actual measurements and represented in the video scale selected in Domus.Cad.
The main features of Map2Cad are:
The use of Map2Cad is very simple and allows for the integration of each of the Google maps features in Domus, including search functions, display choices, street view and more.

On the left, a list of previously imported maps appears.
We’re presenting here a list of “things to look for” specifically aimed at those with experience of other CAD programs who might appreciate special guidance for Domus.Cad. The following points highlight specific areas and draw attention to what makes the program unique compared to others.
80% of architectural work in Europe is done on old buildings. This is undoubtedly also the case in any country with an architectural heritage of buildings made of stone or other durable material, of equal or greater importance than any new construction work .

Some architectural CAD programs attempt to solve this by increasing the number of parameters, but it is a hopeless struggle, because the number of construction elements is infinite and it is near impossible to cover all eventualities. So the parameter problem becomes a real obstacle to the architect.
