= Easier 3D MODELING?=

  AutoCAD has a new 3D Scale tool, called a //gizmo//. There are now 3 gizmos: Move, Rotate, and Scale. The Move gizmo has longer axes. You can easily switch among the gizmos and choose which appears when you click on an editable object. New sub-object filters make it easier to select faces, edges, and vertices. You can use the UNION, SUBTRACT, and INTERFERE commands on surfaces. REVSURF, EDGESURF, TABSURF, and RULESURF create meshes by default, rather than the older smooth surfaces and solids.
