IngeTrazo, IngeCad y IngePresupuesto. Toda una familia Open Source.

Overview

The video introduces IngeTrazo, IngeCad, and IngePresupuestos, a family of free, open-source engineering and design applications.

Presenter Rafael 3D says he spent time testing the programs and sending feedback and suggestions to the small development team. He did not write code. He describes multiple rounds of testing and revisions intended to improve the software ahead of its public introduction.

IngeTrazo: 3D Design for Architecture and Engineering

Presented as a SketchUp-like application, IngeTrazo supports freeform modeling, precise measurements and units, groups and components, materials and textures, dimensions, sections, scenes, terrain, and model libraries. Demonstrated tools include edge rounding, shadows, location-based sunlight, texture placement, and scene navigation.

Users can create custom architectural elements—such as columns, walls, doors, and windows—and tag them as BIM-type objects. The model can then provide quantities such as wall areas, column volumes, and element counts without limiting users to predefined shapes or profiles. IngeTrazo can also open and save native SketchUp files.

Its integrated sheet composer supports drawing sheets with multiple views and scales, dimensions, title blocks, graphic scales, north indicators, layer legends, terrain information, and labels. Sheets can be exported as PDFs or images. The presenter notes that the dimensioning options are designed to accommodate different standards and drafting conventions.

IngeCad: 2D CAD

IngeCad is a 2D CAD program that is currently available only for Linux and is still under development. It opens and saves DWG and DXF files and aims to interoperate with applications such as AutoCAD and BricsCAD. Its interface and command aliases are intended to be familiar to AutoCAD users.

Features shown include:

• Standard drawing and editing tools
• Layers, blocks, external references, and hatching
• Dimension styles and a command line
• Unit conversion and a calculator
• Surveying and terrain tools
• Paper space with multiple viewports and scales

The presenter highlights dimensioning presets intended to keep dimensions legible at different drawing scales.

IngePresupuestos: Construction Budgeting

IngePresupuestos is presented as a tool for creating construction budgets. The presenter does not demonstrate it in detail, explaining that he has no experience with budgeting. The application is described as available for Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Availability and Support

All three applications are presented as free and open source. IngeTrazo and IngePresupuestos are described as available for Windows, Linux, and macOS, while IngeCad is currently Linux-only.

The presenter encourages users, especially businesses, to donate to support continued development.
