What's New? Civil 3D 2023 I
t’s always fun to see the new items in all of Autodesk products. Could there be more? Absolutely!! But continuing to see enhancements of key features and performance updates throughout the year, and with the annual release, this is always a date I look forward to! Keep in mind that some things like Project Explorer and Grading Optimization is only available with subscription to the AEC Collection! However, there are some great new features and functionalities in Civil 3D 2023. Here are just a few:
PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENTS YES! Even us CAD guys and gals need Performance Enhancements every once in a while!! While mine typically comes in a daily Monster or 2, Civil 3D has improved their performance in a few key areas, these include: Section Views and Sample Line Editing Addressed performance issues with corridor section views, including known issues with corridor feature lines, pipe networks and Quantity in section views. This eliminated the recreation of all view draw operations and instead cache the results, so they are not recreated each time other content within the section view is updated. Sample line editing will be 20% faster on average based on the real-world drawings. 24 AUGIWORLD Magazine | May 2022
Event Viewer The hated event viewer has been addressed, somewhat!! Autodesk has increased the overall efficiency of the Event Viewer. The previous, poor performance, of the event viewer database and its results dialog box had been impacting large augi.com
