AutoCAD 2020 introduces a Blocks palette that replaces the old Insert dialog. AutoCAD already had several methods for inserting blocks: the Insert command, Tool Palettes and DesignCenter. Significantly Improved Block InsertionĪlthough the new look and faster performance are nice perks, the most dramatic change is a new, incredibly intuitive method for inserting blocks. In addition, installing the new release should be up to 50% faster for solid-state drives. Most users should see marked improvement when saving drawings, with most saves taking less than half a second, compared to 1.5 seconds on average in the previous release. Users may also notice that the overall performance of AutoCAD 2020 has been improved. Of course, you can still switch to the “light” theme, and give the ribbon an off-white background. Icons stand out better, and context-sensitive ribbons retain the same consistent look. The “dark” theme, which is the default when you first start the program, has a more modern-looking blue background that is much easier on the eyes. What most users will likely notice first about AutoCAD 2020 is its new look. Depending on what cloud-based storage apps you have installed on your workstation, the Places list in AutoCAD file selection dialog boxes now include those services.
New in AutoCAD 2020, however, is the ability to also work with other cloud-based storage solutions, such as Box, Dropbox and OneDrive. For those companies that require drawings to remain within their organization’s network, AutoCAD’s CAD Manager Control Utility now includes the ability to disable the Save to Web and Mobile and Open from Web and Mobile commands.

The “dark” theme in AutoCAD 2020 has a dark blue background with crisper-looking icons.
