Manage Drawings

A HiCAD drawing file is referred to as Drawing and has the file name extension .SZA.

A HiCAD drawing consists of 2-D and 3-D parts. These can be Assemblies, individual Parts, Bores etc. In addition to the parts, the drawing contains basic information about:

the coordinate system, the scale and the unit of measurement,
the 2-D graphical elements (short: GE) and points,
the 3-D solids, surfaces, edges and points,
the 3-D views,
the 3-D processing planes,
the hatchings,
the materials used,
the 2-D and 3-D texts,
the 2-D and 3-D dimensionings,
the auxiliary constructions such as grids, auxiliary lines etc.,
the non-graphical elements (attributes, article data) and
loaded pixel graphics.

Please note:

When you start HiCAD, the settings of the HiCAD Start Centre are taken into account. In other words, HiCAD automatically creates a new drawing or activates the dialogue for loading drawings.
3-D drawings are divided into part drawings and assembly drawings.
