2012 Autodesk University Highlights

AU 2012 is finally over and it ended as one of the best AU Conferences to date. Missed the Event? Don’t fret; I’m here to fill you in. The first day of events started off with the keynote at the Mandalay Bay Hotel. The keynotes speakers included Jeff Kowalski, CTO of Autodesk, who spoke on “Beyond Form: The Whole Design Process. Then there was Dezso Molnar, CTO of Molnari, Inc., who explained his innovative Gyrocycle. Christine Furstoss, Technical Director of Manufacturing & Materials Technologies at GE spoke about the Third Industrial Revolution. The audience was then treated with a surprise guest, Schuyler St. Leger who is a 12 year old boy that specializes in energy. Autodesk CEO, Carl Bass, hoped on stage to join Schuyler in a very entertaining presentation. Lynn Allen, Autodesk Technical Evangelist ended with tips for AU and upcoming events.

A Quick Tour of AutoCAD 2012

By Lynn Allen, Autodesk Technical Evangelist Showing AutoCAD users the new features in AutoCAD 2012 has been an absolute dream for me. There’s something in it for everybody and it has been a real crowd pleaser! There are new 2D and 3D features – so regardless of how you use the software – you’re sure to find a new tool that will save you some valuable drawing time – let’s take a look! For those of you who key in commands (and you know who you are) you’ll find the new AutoComplete a welcome addition. You just start typing – and AutoCAD will present you with a myriad of commands and system variables that start with the same characters (a definite time saver). The in-canvas viewport controls allow you to quickly setup a viewport configuration, shift to a different viewing angle, or change your visual style.
