There's a series of webinars starting next week that will help you get a grip on what's coming with various Autodesk platforms, both cloud-based and desktop. It's also a chance to catch up on some of the content that was presented at last year's DevCons. All the below webinars start at the same time: 8am […]

This isn't exactly new news, but it was to me. Today I found out we've made a very useful component, the Autodesk Reality Solutions SDK, available to the public. This is a C++ library that allows you to read and write Autodesk's RCP and RCS formats, as well as to create custom plugins for new […]

After the previous day's excitement of seeing AutoCAD Web on mainstage at the Google I/O developer keynote, on Wednesday our very own Marcus O'Brien, Senior Product Line Manager in the AutoCAD team, took to the stage during another session at Google I/O – entitled "Building the Future Web with WebAssembly" – to talk a bit […]

As a great way to demonstrate the promise WebAssembly holds for software developers, AutoCAD Web was showcased during yesterday's developer keynote at Google I/O. This is well-deserved recognition of the important work done by the AutoCAD team on the Fabric project (and on AutoCAD Web itself, of course). Congratulations to all those involved!

This is a slightly anomalous post in the "one man's trash" series, in that we've actually found something I can't bear to part with. This was nearly the case for The Autodesk File 3rd Edition, but I did bring myself to ship that one off to Oregon. Today's item, once again uncovered by Francesco Tonioni, […]

For the latest release of AutoCAD a new set of imagery was created. This is the first major evolution of the AutoCAD product brand in several years: our Brand Strategy & Design group recently shared some material about the work they do that I thought would be of interest to readers of this blog. Many […]

Over the weekend I received an email from Jürgen Becker. It came with this image, which certainly brought back memories. The email referred to our recent trip down memory lane… I read your last post and remembered a poster. Do you remember that release, it was terrible? This is one of my favourite "chat over […]

Firstly, I'd like to thank the few people who engaged on the last One Man's Trash, which was clearly (but hopefully not too clearly) an April 1st prank. I'd have expected more people to "bite", but then it was posted over the weekend, so perhaps not that many people saw it. Or perhaps it was […]

Yesterday was a big day for the AutoCAD product. A multi-year engineering project – started in the AutoCAD team way back when I was part of it – culminated in its first deliverables getting into the hands (or, in this case, browsers) of customers. The AutoCAD team has been working on a project codenamed "Fabric" […]
