- Hello to Autodesk Impression 2!
The latest release of Impression is now available to AutoCAD, AutoCAD Architecture, AutoCAD Civil 3D, AutoCAD Map 3D, AutoCAD MEP, and AutoCAD Revit Architecture Suite, AutoCAD Revit MEP Suite, AutoCAD Revit Structure Suite, Revit Architecture, Revit MEP, and Revit Structure software products’ subscription customers.
Impression 2 is available as a download from the Subscription Center.
After you log-in, just scroll down to the bottom of the page and voila! there it is.

And now for the "farewell" as this will be my last blog entry for "Inside Hues." I am currently transitioning over the Product Management team for AutoCAD LT. Launching Impression has been an incredible experience. Not only was I lucky to be surrounded by an incredibly talented team, but moreover, I got to meet, albeit mostly virtually, a whole host of incredibly fun and talented customers. I know that many of our paths will cross again one day (most likely at AU).
Keep your submissions to the Community site coming. Todd Hunter will be taking over as Impression Community webmaster so keep him busy with submissions to the Gallery, Content Exchnage and Tips!
Ged Trias sent me the following image that he did while on vacation (apparently Ged never takes a vacation from Impression) and I thought that it was particularly apt for this last post.

Autodesk Impression 2 will include a ton of new blocks!
You'll see a bunch of them when you first open the Blocks palette -

But you'll find a whole lot more if you link to the Block Library from the Block palette. Once there, you can pick an choose what you want.
