CADinTools Macros transforms CorelDRAW from a standard graphic design software into a high-utility, vector-based technical drawing tool. By adding a dedicated VBA macro toolbar, it injects advanced engineering, architectural, and manufacturing capabilities directly into your workspace. High-Precision Measurement Tools
Real-time dimensions: Calculate accurate curve lengths, internal angles, and total surface areas instantly.
Two-point information: Pull immediate distance data between any two custom coordinates on your workspace.
Arc evaluation: Measure exact arc parameters including radius, peripheral length, and center point alignment. Advanced Curve and Node Editing
Smart curve division: Split existing lines into “n” equal parts or at highly specific numerical lengths.
Geometrical creation: Create perfect bisectors, straight reference lines, and complex tangents between two separate curves automatically.
Node marking: Apply vector marks to all selected nodes simultaneously to isolate complex vector points. True CAD Scaling and Projections
Flexible drawing scales: Scale entire blueprints or specific objects up or down without changing actual vector proportions.
Isometric transformations: Project flat, 2D shapes into a standardized 3D isometric perspective automatically.
Surface development: Unroll 3D shapes like cylinders into flat, calculable pattern pieces for manufacturing or sheet-metal work. Automation and Workspace Speed
Custom selection filters: Isolate specific curves, objects, or colors quickly while excluding everything else from your selection field.
One-click execution: Run multi-step vector manipulations instantly to eliminate manual mathematical configurations.
CorelDRAW History Sync: Track all macro changes natively inside Corel’s built-in Undo and Redo timeline to ensure zero-risk experimentation.
If you are using this plugin for a specific industry workflow, let me know:
Are you designing for sheet metal fabrication, architecture, or graphic print layouts? Which version of CorelDRAW are you running? What specific repetitive task are you trying to automate?
