Cad system with auxiliary input system

Abstract

Methods for CAD editing and corresponding systems and computer-readable mediums. A method for CAD editing includes receiving executing a CAD modeling session by a CAD data processing system. The method includes communicating between the CAD data processing system and an auxiliary device and sending a geometry package from the CAD data processing system to the auxiliary device. The method includes receiving user input by the auxiliary device and transmitting user input data, corresponding to the user input, from the auxiliary device to the CAD data processing system. The method includes updating the CAD modeling session, by the CAD data processing system, according to the user input data. The user input can be, for example, touch-screen input or stylus input on the display of the auxiliary device.
