Autodesk AutoCAD Architecture 2025 with Offline Help

Autodesk Docs Project Synchronization (What's New in 2025)
AutoCAD Architecture and MEP toolsets projects hosted on Autodesk Docs now support automatic synchronization of changes across multiple user machines. This feature enhances productivity and collaboration when multiple users are simultaneously working on the same project. Edits made to a project hosted on Autodesk Docs by one user automatically sync with other users working on the same project without the need to restart or refresh the product. This functionality is particularly beneficial when two or more users are collaborating on a project within a single office or across different offices or geographical locations.


Enhanced Design Center Content (What's New in 2025)
AutoCAD Architecture has expanded its content offerings in Design Center with the addition of approximately 36 new MVBlocks and block references. These additions are available in both the AutoCAD Architecture (US Imperial) and AutoCAD Architecture (US Metric) content packs. The new content includes furniture, vehicles, site, kitchen appliances, and so on.
The added content is available in metric profile for non-English languages.


IFC Workflow Enhancements (What's New in 2025)
In this release, several improvements have been made to enhance IFC workflows in the AutoCAD Architecture and MEP toolsets. These improvements include:
- Performance improvement: The time required to export large and complex drawing files in IFC format (IFCEXPORT) and import large IFC files into AutoCAD Architecture and MEP toolsets (IFCIMPORT) has been significantly reduced.
- Quality of import: The IFC import quality has been enhanced, leading to an overall improvement in the user experience. Known issues that were previously encountered with empty imports and erroneous geometry have been addressed and resolved.

Quality improvements

- Occasional Crash Fixes: This release addresses and resolves occasional program crashes or freezes that occurred while working in the following workflows:
. Working in Display Manager
. Opening certain drawings
. Working with custom CUI and profile
- Display Manager: The Display Manager now works correctly when the drawing exclusively contains classifications that apply to AutoCAD objects.
- IFC Import or Export: The IFC Import process now successfully completes after generating the drawing files.
- Project Navigator: Version column width can now be adjusted in Project Navigator.
- Body Modifier: The body modifier now works correctly when used with walls and 3D solids.
- Content Paths: Content paths are now imported correctly after applying import settings.
- Sheet Set Manager: Sheet Set Manager now supports Vault check in/out functionality.

Additional enhancements

- 2D Graphics:
. Font display improvements.
. The Graphics Performance dialog box includes a new "Diagnosis" tab specifically designed to diagnose common graphics card issues.
- 3D Graphics: The Wireframe visual style has been added to the cross platform 3D graphics system. See the Fast shaded mode option in the Graphics Performance dialog box for more information.
- File Open Performance: Improvements have been made to reduce the amount of time it takes to open 2D drawing files.
- New and Changed File Formats: The ACTM and DXE file formats have been replaced by the new ACTMX and DXEX file formats.
. ACTM files must be migrated to the ACTMX file format before they can be played back. New action macros recorded are stored in the ACTMX file format and are not compatible with AutoCAD 2024 and earlier releases.
. DXE files can continue to be used to extract data from a drawing, but changes can't be saved back these files. Changes can only be saved to the new DXEX file format which is not compatible with AutoCAD 2024 and earlier releases.
