DraftSight for Mac 2021 full offline installer setup for Mac
All Mac apps share the same menu bar (bad design, in my opinion), and all have an application menu that's made from the name of the app. In this case, it is DraftSight. This menu item holds the Preferences (Options) command, as well as system commands, such as About, Hide, and Quit. MAC Design and Build chose DraftSight Professional 2D design software because it’s easy to learn and use, especially for those with AutoCAD experience, and provides all of the capabilities of AutoCAD at a.
Draftsight For Mac Reviews
The app is different and more popular than other CAD applications on the market because it is easier to use. Engineers, students, and teachers are all eager to use Draft Sight for Mac to work with CAD drawings.
You’ll find the design of Draft Sight is much more simplified in comparison to other quality CAD applications. Despite this, the GUI still looks just as complex as other CAD software. It just as a cleaner and near appearance which makes it look more appealing to people.
It supports the most popular CAD formats, including DWT, DWG, and DXF. Whenever you want to open a current design model or create a new one, It makes each function equally doable.
Some impressive features of the software include layer support, formatting tools, animated rendering, and shape insertion. The formatting tools support styles for scales, texts, and tables. The shapes you can insert include masks, text, sketches, ellipses, splines, rings, circles, rectangles, lines, and more.
You can modify the model with features like spit, mirror, offset, chamfer, trim, extend, scale, rotate, and stretch. In addition, you can add reference drawings, hyperlinks, objects, and images. Some of the objects you can add include charts, equations, and PDF documents.
When you want to save and export drawings, you can do so in formats like WMF, BMP, JPG, PNG, STL, TIF, EPS, PDF, and SVG. Also, if you’re able to use eDrawings software, then models can be sent straight to the publishing module where you can share it.
DraftSight is the perfect software platform for any person who does CAD work. Users have access to a range of tools that are simple to manipulate and use. On the other hand, it could definitely use more support for a larger range of formats.
If you are looking for DraftSight for Mac alternatives, we recommend you to download Autodesk AutoCAD for Mac or LibreCAD for Mac.
Note: 30 days trial version.

After a rather long Beta period, DraftSight for Mac OS is finally available.
DraftSight for Mac is a CAD application that was designed for CAD users. It gives them the ability to view, manage, and create drawings in DXF and DWG format. Users are given a professional environment to manipulate these drawings to their liking. Novices and experts will both find DraftSight. DraftSight for macOS also supports DGN Import, G-Code Generation, Batch Printing, Lisp and a host of other features that you can check out here. Best of all, whether your Office and Clients use Mac or Windows®, your drawing files are compatible with each operating system. You don’t need to worry about drawing file incompatibilities! Operating system: Mac, Windows. Price: $195/month, $1,260/year. Try out the free trial!
So, what features can you expect to find in DraftSight for macOS? With the exception of Drawing Compare, Image Tracer, 3D ContentCentral® integration, and HomeByMe integration due to differing software architecture, all features in DraftSight for Windows are also available for Mac, including:
Draftsight Macro
Dynamic Blocks Support
Now you can use Dynamic Blocks from AutoCAD® directly in DraftSight. Your legacy data can now be migrated with full intelligence and configurability. Dynamic Blocks contain rich configurations for easy manipulation and handling of blocks.
Auto Trim Dimension Extension Lines
Dragging dimensions to other areas of your geometry no longer requires manual trimming or adjusting.
Auto Dimension and Auto Arrange Dimensions
Automatically create dimensions for selected elements, then preview and easily adjust their placements as desired.
DraftSight for macOS also supports DGN Import, G-Code Generation, Batch Printing, Lisp and a host of other features that you can check out here.
Best of all, whether your Office and Clients use Mac or Windows®, your drawing files are compatible with each operating system. You don’t need to worry about drawing file incompatibilities!
And, like DraftSight Premium for Windows, DraftSight Premium for macOSnow features 3D Modeling Tools such as:
- Box: Creates a three-dimensional solid box.
- Pyramid: Created a three-dimensional solid pyramid.
- Wedge: Creates a three-dimensional solid toroid.
- Planar Surface: Creates a rectangular planar surface.
- Cone: Creates a three-dimensional solid cone.
- Cylinder: Creates a three-dimensional solid cylinder.
- Sphere: Creates a three-dimensional solid sphere.
- Torus: Creates a three-dimensional solid toroid.
In addition to those tools, there are these extras:
- Extrude: Creates a 3D solid or surface.
- Loft: Creates a 3D solid by lofting between existing cross sections.
- Polysolid: Draws 3D solid objects in the shape of a polygonal walls.
- Push and Pull: Modifies 3D solids or bounded areas by extrusion.
- Revolve: Creates a 3D solid or surface by revolving a 2D object about an axis.
- Sweep: Creates unique solid primitives or surfaces by sweeping existing two dimensional entities along a path.
So, those are your basic 3D Modeling tools. Using them, well you can pretty much draw anything you desire in 3D within DraftSight Premium for macOS. But we are not finished there, DraftSight Premium for macOScomes with a a large array of Solid Editing Tools which will allow you to create more complex 3D Solid Objects!
- Union: Creates a composite region or solid by addition.
- Substract: Creates a composite region or a 3D solid by subtraction.
- Intersect: Creates regions or 3D solids from the intersection regions or of 3D
solids. - 3D Rotate: Rotates drawing entities in 3D space around a specified axis.
- Align 3D: Aligns entities with respect tother entities or other target points in
3D space. - Mirror 3D: Creates a mirror image in a 3D plane around a 3D axis.
- Pattern 3D: Lets you create a pattern of entities in 3D space, either in a linear
matrix or a circular alignment about a rotation axis. - Chamfer Edges: Bevels the edges of 3D solid objects.
- Fillet Edges: Rounds the edges of 3D solid objects.
- Interference Checking: Checks interferences within a solid model.
- Slice: Slices 3D solids with a plane or surface.
- Thicken: Creates 3D solids from surfaces by thickening them.
So, with all that in mind, if you are in the market for a professional grade CAD system on mac OS, check out DraftSight 2020 Premium. Please note, DraftSight for Mac is not yet supported for Enterprise or Enterprise Plus offerings.
