Listech’s latest release of LISCAD V12.2 is now available and includes several new features designed to simplify and enhance the user experience.

Notable enhancements to LISCAD V12.2 include:

• Create Polygon by Inside Mouse Click
  Create a polygon with a single mouse click and supercharge subdivision allotment creation.


• Examine 3D Offset commands
  Calculations in 3D world are now even easier. This feature allows users to examine 3D Offsets to a Reference Line, Line or Plane.


• Import SEE Cross Sections
  The new feature allows import of cross section sets from other LISCAD projects to easily view and compare cross sections between different projects.


• Leica DBX Field Transfer and Data Conversions
  A single device option for Leica devices, with a new Leica DBX device option replacement for Leica System 1200, Viva and Nova devices.
