What's New
New features in AutoCAD LT 2011 enhance documentation capabilities with new commands and tools that make the execution of every-day tasks more efficient as well as new commands that give users additional options for controlling the appearance of drawings.
Polyline editing improvements:
- The improved functionality of enhanced grips makes polylines significantly easier to edit in AutoCAD LT 2011.
- New secondary grips provide quick access to multiple functions.
Hatch Command Enhancements:
- Improve drafting efficiency with new contextual ribbon tabs for hatch creation and editing.
Create or select similar objects:
- Two new commands save steps and time, speeding the process of creating or selecting objects based on the properties of existing objects.
Hide or isolate objects:
- The new Hide Objects and Isolate Objects tools control the visibility of objects regardless of layer, so focus remains on the designated objects.
Transparency
- Transparency is a new variable in AutoCAD LT 2011 for layers and objects that gives users new options for managing the appearance of drawings.

Editor's Review
AutoCAD LT - Things We Like
Many AutoCAD LT review articles say that it is very easy to use and efficient for 2D technical design, it is useful for viewing designs directly into the program, hatch editing and the creation function is easier to use in the 2011 version. The options for colours and layers have been upgraded and the AutoCAD LT download costs less than other similar programs, such as Desktop.
AutoCAD LT - Things We Didn't Like
It does not embed any of the 3D options. Professional training might be needed for mastering the program's functions, which could mean that it is less user friendly than Adobe Photoshop for example.
Some of the icons have been changes so much that they are harder to recognize by the users of the previous version. Raster images are inserted into the program as reference files, not as graphic elements, meaning that they can no longer be modified into the program.
