If you are an existing Bricscad Classic or Pro V12 licensed user, the Bricscad Platinum menu is visible on your user-interface but is grayed out. This post explains how you can test the Platinum features, while you are already licensed for Classic or Pro. The simple answer is that you need a special Platinum license key to test the features of Bricscad Platinum.

Bricsys will send you a Platinum license key. This key enables you to try the Platinum features for a limited time period (30 days).
To enter the Platinum license key:
1. Start Bricscad version 12.1 or higher.
Window Vista and 7 users: you have to run Bricscad as administrator (Right-click - Run as administrator).
2. In the "Help" menu, select the "License..." option. The "Licensing Information" dialog opens.
3. Click the "Modify..." button. The "Enter License Key for Bricscad" dialog opens.
4. In the "Key" field, enter the license key and click the "OK" button.
5. Close the "Licensing Information" dialog and re-start Bricscad.
You can now try the Platinum features. However, please be aware that Bricscad is now running in a 30-day demo mode. There is no VBA available in demo mode due to licensing regulations, even though you may be a Bricscad Pro user.
Once the Platinum key expires, we hope that you will be convinced to go the Platinum way. However, if you are not ready yet, you have to re-enter your Classic or Pro license key and go back to your original configuration.
To re-enter the key, repeat steps 1 to 5 above.
If you forgot your Classic/Pro key, you can find it in the Bricsys Meeting Point area

Customers using an older Bricscad version can at any time install Bricscad V12 in trial mode. In this mode, Bricscad runs as a Platinum version (without VBA).
