Redesign of the transparent toolbar: Optimized for 4K resolution. The latest update of our transparent toolbar in HiCAD brings a significant improvement in display quality, especially for high-resolution 4K monitors. With this new feature, you will experience increased clarity and detail, making your work processes more efficient and visually appealing

The transparent toolbar in HiCAD now offers an individual size adjustment by means of a slider, allowing a customized workspace for each user. This can be achieved by clicking on the 2 arrows.

The attribute masks in HiCAD for designs as well as parts and assemblies have been modernized and can now be adjusted in size to adapt optimally to any screen resolution.

The extended marking function in HiCAD now enables the marking of almost all surfaces, with the exception of cones, spheres and tori. For surfaces with a tangential transition, the marking continues over the rounding to the next edge, but not for cylinders. On edge plates, the marking is continued via tabs. In addition, markings can now also be created in the bending simulation.

The new function in HiCAD allows you to move and simultaneously rotate the active object, which can be either an individual part or a parts list. After starting the function, first select a plane on the object and then a plane in your design. The transformation is carried out in such a way that the coordinate systems of both planes match. As soon as the construction plane has been defined, a preview shows the transformed part or parts list in its new position.

The software has been designed to be more user-friendly. It now makes it possible to create components both as hollow and solid parts in various versions and to integrate them flexibly as main or secondary parts in your designs.
