Watch It Start to Finish

A 4-minute walkthrough, from opening the export to the PDF, using a recipe saved beforehand.

From Export to Exhibit

This is one way AutoStyle Pro can be used on residential projects: a land plan can quickly reflect different products.

1. Open the CAD export

Blocks named for a species map themselves, and the matches can be kept as mapping rules for the next drawing.

2. Apply one recipe

A recipe is just a saved style or look based on your AutoCAD layers. One recipe styles the whole drawing.

3. Set the land uses

Fence every lot a line crosses, window every lot wholly inside, or point at one lot. Replace fixes a lot that was set wrongly.

4. Let the Site Key count

96, 3 and 2 lots add up to all 101, and the Site Key counts them for you.

5. Tune the look

Shade edge, shadow length, time of day and date all update live on the sheet. Seven view modes restyle it with one setting.

6. Export the sheet

Save the drawing and export the finished sheet as a PDF.

One Drawing, Six Looks

This is real output at full size: 7200 x 10800 pixels, the same sheet exported in each look. Zoom in as far as you like.
