About VectorWorksWith flexible NURBS surface and solid modeling tools, you�ll get advanced 3D functionality that previously could only be found in modeling programs costing much more. Models can be built from 2D legacy data, created by simply sketching profiles, or from 3D solid primitives. Unique surface/solids capabilities allow you to seamlessly switch between the two and combine shapes to create standard and non-manifold geometry. And, with 16-bit floating point precision, your models will be accurate and ready for analysis and manufacturing. For easy object creation and editing, you can draw or reshape sketches, surfaces, and solids dynamically with your mouse, or precisely by keying in exact dimensions. Plus, VectorWorks maintains a history of your modeling operations. Easily explore design alternatives and test changes without having to start over. Simply double-click on a solid to edit its sketch profile or to examine, reuse, or edit geometry at any point in the model's history. VectorWorks' unique page layout and rendering capabilities make it easy to present your designs. Quickly set up and align a variety of model views, such as orthographic, isometric, broken, detail, and break-out. Annotate your views with a full complement of drafting, dimensioning, and text tools. Then, render your model.
