AutoCAD 2010 AEC Press Release Webcast
Here is a link to view the recorded Autodesk 2010 AEC Press Release Webcast. You can also download the AEC 2010 Launch Press Materials. The zip file contains information on the following Autodesk 2010 products:

AutoCAD 2010 Product Demo Videos
For a quick look at some of the AutoCAD 2010 PDF capabilities that I discussed yesterday, there is a video posted on YouTube.
Additional AutoCAD 2010 Product Demo Videos can be found here.
Thanks to Shaan for posting this one.

2010 Product Launch
You can view recorded videos and download the 2010 Launch Press Materials here. There will be additional press releases today for the verticals (including Civil 3D). The videos will be posted and ready to view by everyone early next week using the same link.
Be sure and check Shaan's Between the Lines Blog for a link to today's webcast at 11am EST. Today's webcast will include a look at the Architecture, Engineering, Construction, Utilities and Geospatial 2010 Autodesk Product Line. This includes a look at Civil 3D.
Also, the AutoCAD 2010 Launch Press Materials zip file includes some information on Civil 2010 (not Civil 3D 2010) since this product is built on AutoCAD, not AutoCAD Map. Hmmmm, might this be a sneak peak at Civil 3D 2010? We'll find out later today.

AutoCAD 2010 Is Finally Unveiled
I hope many of you were able to view the Autodesk 2010 Product Release Webcast today. If not, Shaan Hurley has posted a link to the webcast on his blog. The webcast was recorded and can be viewed by anyone willing to provide your name, company name, email address and accept the privacy statement. There will be another webcast on Friday, February 6, at 9:00 am PST. Details can be found on Shaan's Between the Lines blog. This second webcast will cover Architecture, Engineering, Construction, Utilities, and Geospatial.
Today's webcast showed some of the great new features of AutoCAD 2010. Some of these features were available to Autodesk Subscription Customers with AutoCAD 2009 such as PDF overlays and 3D printing. Since the majority of my work is with a vertical (Civil 3D), I was unable to enjoy these cool new features. These features are now fully integrated into AutoCAD 2010 and that means they will also be included inside of Civil 3D 2010.
My two favorite features of today's webcast are PDF's created by AutoCAD and parametric drawing constraints. I know we've been able to plot to PDF for several releases now via either an AutoCAD pc3 file or third party applications (both free and paid versions). However, let's see those third party applications do what AutoCAD 2010 is doing with their PDF's. Here's a list of a few things you can do with PDF's created by AutoCAD 2010 that were shown in today's webcast:

- Create PDF's that include layer information
- Overlay PDF's in a manner similar to images or DGN's
- Change the transparency of the linework shown in a PDF overlay
- Snap to geometry points of the linework shown in a PDF overlay
- Change the visibility of the linework shown in a PDF overlay
- Clip the PDF overlay similar to xclip with an attached drawing
- Modify the clip boundary on a PDF overlay
- Invert the clip boundary on a PDF overlay
- Lines merge or lines overwrite option
- Text can now be embedded into the PDF so you can search for text

Civil 3D 2009 Update 2 Has Arrived
Just a quick post to let everyone know that the Civil 3D 2009 Update 2 has been posted. You can download this update from the Autodesk website here.
Thanks to Lisa P. for the email notification. I was also notified from Autodesk about the patch after submitting a CER that included my email address.
Another quick reminder to send in your CER's when you crash. It's important for Autodesk to see how often an error occurs and how many folks it affects. This ensures that the problem is given a higher priority level and the chances of it being fixed in the next product update are much greater.
