Select the product you are using then choose a row to open the full task guide. infrADAC ACAD and infrADAC BCAD use commands from the CAD command line or ribbon. infrADAC DCAD uses macros started from the infrADAC 12d toolbar.

Command names are case insensitive

You can type command names using upper or lower case letters. The reference shows the spelling used in the interface.

2Commands and macros

IconCommandPurpose
CMDADACAboutOpen the disclaimer and product acknowledgement.
CMDADACAnnotateCreate an Annotation enhancement. infrADAC DCAD attributes one existing native 12d Text element and uses remove and recreate for corrections.
CMDADACAssetAttributesSet reusable Standard and Supplementary asset-specific prefills and optionally load or save a preset JSON.
CMDADACAuditAudit the current project. infrADAC DCAD validates live geometry from infrADAC and native nested Adac records without transient audit highlights.
CMDADACBulkBreaklineCreate Breakline assets from linework. infrADAC DCAD accepts open source strings through its compact selection panel, creates native assets and leaves the sources unchanged.
CMDADACBulkContourCreate Contour assets from constant elevation linework. infrADAC DCAD accepts source strings through a compact selection panel, creates native assets and leaves the sources unchanged.
CMDADACBulkEasementCreate Easement assets from closed areas. infrADAC DCAD uses a compact selection panel, editable starting and step values and red or green Plan assignment for A through Z then AA onward.
CMDADACBulkLotCreate Lot assets from closed areas. infrADAC DCAD uses a compact selection panel, editable starting and step values and red or green Plan assignment before creating native assets with numeric LotNo values.
CMDADACBulkSpotAlias for Bulk Spot Height. infrADAC DCAD accepts one point native strings through the compact direct selection panel.
CMDADACBulkSpotHeightCreate Spot Height assets from points or blocks in infrADAC ACAD and infrADAC BCAD. infrADAC DCAD accepts one point source strings through its compact selection panel and creates native assets.
CMDADACCleanRun selected data-integrity, supporting-file, prefill and property block repairs.
CMDADACCloneClone to points or compatible geometry in infrADAC ACAD or infrADAC BCAD. infrADAC DCAD captures one native source and places duplicates at repeated Plan X/Y points while preserving source Z.
CMDADACCSVImport coordinate rows from supported CSV layouts and map each row to an asset type.
CMDADACCUIxInstall, reset or remove the CUIX ribbon for infrADAC ACAD and infrADAC BCAD. It is not supported or required in infrADAC DCAD.
CMDADACDimensionCreate a Dimension enhancement. infrADAC DCAD attributes one existing native 12d Dimension element and uses remove and recreate for corrections.
CMDADACDirectionClearClear direction metadata and preview graphics.
CMDADACDirectionSetWrite direction metadata for selected line or surface assets.
CMDADACDirectionViewPreview selected line or surface direction without writing metadata.
CMDADACDrawingExtentsSet project drawing extents. In infrADAC DCAD this alias supports coordinates, native Plan corner picks and Plan view model extents.
CMDADACEditEdit selected assets in infrADAC ACAD or infrADAC BCAD. infrADAC DCAD captures one exact native element through its pre-launch output window pick.
CMDADACErrorHideHide selected or all transient audit highlights without deleting them.
CMDADACErrorShowShow selected or all stored transient audit highlights.
CMDADACErrorWipeRemove selected or all transient audit highlights.
CMDADACExportAudit and export supported deliverables. infrADAC DCAD normalises native Adac data and sends live geometry without duplicates through the shared XML writer.
CMDADACFindSearch current design assets and focus the exact result. infrADAC DCAD identifies complete point, polyline and polygon UIDs in red and centres the existing Plan viewport without changing zoom.
CMDADACFlowDirectionView, set, compare or clear fall-direction metadata for selected linework.
CMDADACGenerateCreate or assign a compatible definition from existing geometry. infrADAC DCAD captures exact sources and uses Settings > New Object to choose separate native assets or attribution in place.
CMDADACGlobalAttributesSet or edit category-based global attribute presets for later asset workflows.
CMDADACGroundCreateBuild and activate an infrADAC ground surface from supported source data.
CMDADACGroundDefineActivate a stored or selected existing ground surface.
CMDADACGroundResetClear the active ground-surface definition and optionally delete generated geometry.
CMDADACHelpOpen the bundled product offline HTML manual in the dedicated infrADAC User Manual window.
CMDADACHideAttributesHide selected or all asset property blocks.
CMDADACImportAudit and import an ADAC XML file. infrADAC DCAD creates native models, elements and world space Annotation Text.
CMDADACLibraryBrowse and edit profile based definitions, geometry, required status rules and the appearance controls supported by the active product.
CMDADACLicenceReview, refresh, check out, return or troubleshoot the active licence.
CMDADACLogOpen the latest infrADAC diagnostic log.
CMDADACNewRun project, global and asset prefill initialisation. infrADAC DCAD performs the full preset sequence without DWG drawing changes.
CMDADACProfileEdit the current profile metadata and supplementary contents; host drawing resources remain product-limited.
CMDADACProjectEdit project location, profile, standard, name and description.
CMDADACProjectAttributesSet profile controlled project attributes. infrADAC DCAD persists them through native 12d project attributes.
CMDADACRecreateAttributesRecreate property blocks for selected assets or groups.
CMDADACRefreshAttributesRefresh selected or all property blocks from current XData.
CMDADACSettingsOpen general, profile, licence, update and folder settings.
CMDADACShowAttributesShow selected or all asset property blocks.
CMDADACStandardChoose and create a standard asset from the active profile or base schema.
CMDADACSupplementaryChoose and create a supplementary asset from the active profile.
CMDADACSupportCreate a support ticket and optionally attach the latest log.
CMDADACSurfaceOpen the land and surface action menu.
CMDADACUpdateCheck software and entitled profile updates.
CMDADACXDataInspect all registered XData on selected infrADAC assets.
CMDExtractBlockAttributesDiagnostic helper for extracting block attributes inside a selected area.
CMDExtractPolylineXDataDiagnostic helper for checking infrADAC polyline XData inside a selected area.

3Selection behaviour

ProductHow selection works
infrADAC ACADEdit, Clone, Generate and other model commands can use objects selected before the command starts.
infrADAC BCADUses the same preselection pattern through BricsCAD selection APIs.
infrADAC DCAD12d does not expose another option's active selection. Generate uses a prelaunch Single/Multi Source Box. Edit, Clone, Annotation and Dimension use a prelaunch output window pick. Bulk tools open a compact direct selection panel automatically. Left click each source and select Done. Clone placement accepts repeated Plan X/Y points while preserving source Z.
