CYCAS is a 2D+3D CAD package for drafting and design in high quality and for creating 3D presentations and technical illustrations easily.

Some of its features include an easy-to-handle user interface, special architectural elements and functions, a WYSIWYG display, printing, plotting, import and export filters, photorealistic rendering with POV-Ray, documentation and tutorials, example drawings, and an extendable 2D/3D symbols library.

Easy to handle. Dialog boxes to design drawing elements easily with a database function to improve work flow. A layer technique which is flexible to employ.

It simulates working with transparency sheets. HTML online help, illustrated with many graphics. Graphical user interface based on GTK (The Gimp Toolkit).

Lines, circles, texts, patterns and color fillings, calculation of areas and volumina, semi-automatic and manual measurement, support of architectural presentation, extendable Symbol library.

Architectural elements such as walls, openings, windows, doors, 3D basics, extendable Symbol library.

Intuitive working in the ground plan, elevation and isometric views. Computing graphics such as hidden line graphics or wire graphics from various perspective or isometric views.

Direct export to POV-Ray [TM of the POV-Ray Team] module to generate high-quality rendered images easily. Extendable Material database to support output of 3D data to renderer.
