GeoTools V13 & CADPower V13 are now shipping.
The thirteenth numbered upgrade of GeoTools since 1999, GeoTools V13 (as well as CADPower V13) is now shipping and available for download on our website.
The V13 upgrade of GeoTools & CADPower is FREE for all purchases of the V12 version made on or after January 1, 2012. This also applies to all GeoTools upgrades from earlier versions of GeoTools made AFTER this date.
GeoTools & CADPower V13 offers compatibility and runs with AutoCAD 2013. It also runs on all vertical applications built on AutoCAD 2013. If you experience any problems with your setup, we will be glad to assist.
We take this opportunity to remind all of you that V13 supports fully ribbonized user-interface in AutoCAD 2012 and 2013, in addition to pull-down menus, toolbars, command line and script interface.
GeoTools & CADPower V13 is compatible with all lower versions until AutoCAD 2007.
Users wishing to use GeoTools on lower-than AutoCAD 2007 versions of AutoCAD can still purchase V12.20 from us at the old, un-split price of USD 219 per license.
On Bricscad, GeoTools/CADPower V 13 runs on V 12.1.15.1 and later only. The software may not work correctly on earlier builds of Bricscad v12 because of some new floating licensing API functions that have been specifically created for GeoTools/CADPower and available only in 12.1.15.1.
We split GeoTools into CADPower and GeoTools and released the split products with V12.21 during the life-cycle of V12. This process has now been completed fully with the user manuals in English and Spanish fully updated. We have also reduced the feature overlap between the two products and shifted a number of commands from GeoTools to CADPower. They are GT_TC, GT_UNCLUTTER, GT_INSVX, GT_DELVX, GT_PLARCMIRROR, GT_MVEDIT, GT_PARTOFFSET, GT_PARTCOPY, GT_PARTSTRETCH, GT_PARTEXTRACT, GT_PARTRESHAPE, GT_PARTROTATE, GT_NEWSTART, GT_SEGLENSET, GT_MFILLET, GT_FILLETPOLY, GT_FLOW_LT, GT_LENGTH, GT_CALCAREA, GT_BULGE, GT_DXY, GT_ANGLE, GT_CHW, GT_LINPOLY, GT_XP_WPL, GT_PLINE2ARC, GT_PFACE2PL, GT_3DF2PFACE, GT_PL2PFACE, GT_PL23DFACE and GT_FLATTEN. With this transition, GeoTools now is more close to being a pure-Geo product and the whole bunch of above-mentioned commands are now part of CADPower.
We have been extremely busy past few months in splitting and re-oragnizing GeoTools and CADpower and improving the existing documentation and the support infrastructure on the web/blogs/newsletters. Over the new few months, we have plans to add a whole new bunch of tools to take CAD productivity to new levels.
Some of the tools under development or planned for the life-cycle of V13 are:
- A comprehensive multiple file copy systems, on the lines of the old DOS XCOPY (CADPower)
- Round off bearings (GeoTools)
- A more complete, volume computation tool (GeoTools)
- Change object visibility (CADPower)
- Annotate with object handles (CADPower)
- and many more......

GeoTools and CADPower now support network licensing over a LAN. This will allow you to purchase a few licenses and have many more users use the software in a non-simultaneous use environment. The network license will be priced 40 % higher than the stand-alone licenses because of the additional value it delivers.
