A closer look

Inspect supported model-space geometry in a DWG without installing CAD software. This read-only preview draws lines, arcs, circles, polylines, basic text and supported blocks. It is not a CAD editor or a reliable construction drawing; compare important details with the source application.

A practical example

Choose a floor-plan DWG, zoom into a room, then turn a layer off to inspect the remaining geometry. The original file is unchanged.
