Urbano Visio
Win64, EnglishGeneral Usage Instructions
Urbano Visio works on both Imperial and Metric Civil 3D templates.
It uses the part list that is currently in use, it does not install any part lists!
All functions are performed using Civil 3D objects and functions.
The .dwg file edited with Urbano Visio cannot be distinguished from a standard Civil 3D file. It can be used with any Civil 3D, without restrictions, even if Urbano Visio is not installed.
Urbano Visio is available for Civil 3D 2021 – 2025
