More and more AutoCAD users are venturing out of their traditional and familiar two-dimensional world to explore the possibilities of 3D modeling. Thanks to many software enhancements in this area, 3D is an increasingly useful and widespread tool. However, the leap into three dimensions requires some changes in thinking and drawing habits.
