IntelliCAD 14 Announcement - Blog-1

Portland, OR – July 31, 2025 – The IntelliCAD Technology Consortium (ITC) today announced the release of IntelliCAD 14.0.

IntelliCAD 14.0 is a major release focused on performance improvements, interface enhancements, and practical tools that streamline everyday CAD workflows. The new dark theme gives IntelliCAD a modern, professional look while helping users stay focused and comfortable—especially during long design sessions or in low-light environments. The updated interface also includes refreshed icons and flexible theme options—Dark, Light, and Gray—so users can personalize their workspace.

Enhancements in IntelliCAD 14.0 include faster performance for common tasks like Copy, Break, Move, and Union, along with support for generating QR codes using the QRTEXT and QRLEADER commands. Table editing now includes auto-fill functionality, and the Data Extraction tool has been improved with a new filter option for refining output.

For users working across multiple monitors, IntelliCAD now supports detachable drawing windows. A new transparency option for the command window adds visual flexibility when working over complex drawings.

Additional updates include support for Autodesk® Revit® 2025 files, SVG import, and an improved DGN import process. Users working with geospatial data will benefit from new Esri® imagery support in the GEO command, following the discontinuation of Microsoft® Bing® Maps access.

IntelliCAD 14.0 also includes API enhancements for both LISP and the .NET platform. A new VLISP command launches the IntelliCAD Lisp Debugger inside Visual Studio Code, and several new LISP functions provide more direct access to object properties. On the .NET side, performance has been improved for specific view-related functions.

“IntelliCAD 14.0 reflects our commitment to listening to real-world feedback from our members and delivering the tools they need most,” said Shawn Lindsay, President of the IntelliCAD Technology Consortium. “We remain focused on providing an open, dependable platform that developers can build on—and on offering a powerful alternative in the CAD software market.”
