Autodesk’s annual Right of Spring begins with a twist this year. AutoCAD 2019 is now available to subscription customers and specifically to AEC and MFG Collection subscription customers with a rasher of potential vertical Toolsets. The new AutoCAD 2019 Toolset release will be available to subscription customers on Apr 1, 2018.

Whether you consider the Toolsets something new or a repackaging or rebranding of the original vertical applications built on AutoCAD is a matter of opinion. AutoCAD Map 3D functionality is available to subscribers, but still not part of core AutoCAD.

Note that AutoCAD Civil 3D 2019 is not in the current list of included AutoCAD 2019 Toolsets.

The installs are available to subscription customers via the Autodesk Desktop App or via download from the Autodesk subscription site.

There are a good number of quick introductory videos available from the AutoCAD 2019 page and AutoCAD 2019 on-line Help pages. Follow the links below.
