Merge Layer
DraftSight 2024 brings the Merge Layers feature, a robust tool designed to consolidate multiple layers into a single layer. This new addition simplifies complex drawings and allows for the organization of related entities, leading to optimized drawings that enhance efficiency and ensure precision in both 2D and 3D projects.
Attach Multiple Xrefs

Export Sheet
Now with DraftSight 2024 you can rapidly create new drawings from existing files without loss of detail. Export all the visible entities of the active sheet viewports in model space to a new drawing. This feature enables you to improve the legibility and focus of specific sections, areas, or views within your drawing by exporting scaled representations of model space, title blocks, and other annotative elements, including dimensions and notes.
Ribbon Based Interface for MacOS
Experience enhanced Ribbon UI for DraftSight on macOS. In the previous Mac version, the interface was menu-based with limited customization options. Now, macOS users can enjoy a unified, optimized user interface, providing the same experience as our Windows users.
Make Flat Snapshot Improvements
In DraftSight 2024, a significant improvement has been made to the Make Flat Snapshot command. Now, you can easily link foreground and hidden lines to specific layers from the Flat Snapshot dialog, enhancing organization and enabling swift visibility adjustments based on layer associations.
Reshaping Hatches
Explore the latest enhancements in DraftSight's hatch functionality, providing users with greater flexibility when reshaping hatches, all without the hassle of recreating them. This is achieved by breaking the associative link between the hatch and its original boundary, unlocking a range of grips surrounding the entire hatch. These grips empower users to execute a multitude of actions, including stretching, vertex insertion, and converting to arcs.
