Autodesk FormIt 5.0 Features Easy Object Copying, Quick Dimension Editing And More

Autodesk FormIt has just been updated to version 5.0, thereby gaining several significant enhancements. Released in November last year, Autodesk FormIt is an iPad app that lets you lay out building design concepts anytime and anywhere inspiration strikes:

Autodesk FormIt mobile app helps you capture building design concepts digitally anytime, anywhere ideas strike. Use real-world site information to help create forms in context and support early design decisions with real building data. Experience a continuous Building Information Modeling (BIM) workflow by synchronizing designs in the cloud for further refinement using Autodesk Revit software products and other applications.

Through its 5.0 update, Autodesk FormIt has been enhanced with the ability to copy a single object by dragging the object with two fingers. And if you wish to make multiple copies of an object, you can do that now as well with the new Array tool. Autodesk FormIt 5.0 also allows you to tap on dimensions to edit them and to select multiple objects with the new "lasso" tool. Moreover, the app now calculates floor area by Level datum.
