Question 1

What happened to BricsCAD Shape?

Accepted Answer

BricsCAD Shape, which was previously offered free of charge, was discontinued with BricsCAD V26. It is not part of V26 or later versions, and there is no longer a free Shape download. Shape saved models as DWG, so your files still open directly in BricsCAD. New to BricsCAD?
