KeyCreator 2025
Among the most notable updates in KeyCreator 2025 is that the new version of KeyCreator Pro transitions native CAD file translation capabilities from major 3D CAD programs to be exclusively based on technology from the Kubotek Kosmos 3D Framework.
As a result, KeyCreator 2025 users will connect to product definition data through the uniquely powerful system which Kubotek Kosmos incorporates in all of its other end-user products and provides to other 3D software communities with similar needs.
User Experience (UX) Improvements
High-Resolution Monitor Support
KeyCreator's graphical interface has been improved to work effectively with both standard and high-resolution (4K) monitors.
- Display of dialogs & toolbars
- Pulldown & scroll lists
- Splitter window
- Axis marker/gnomon appearance
"Smart" Dialog Boxes
To facilitate repeated tasks when working on a file, edit dialog boxes default to the most recent tree item/page the user was working with.
Productivity Improvements to Modeling Functions
Updates & additions to fundamental steps that save users time on some simple-yet-important modeling actions.
New Fastener Sets Feature
This new feature makes the repetitive task of placing fasteners and their related washers and nuts more streamline. This provides valuable time-savings when creating models where there are repeating sets of the same fastener.
Fastener Set Function
By enabling the user to place multiple related objects — fastener, nut, and washers — in a single operation, the feature helps prevent errors of oversight and reduces the number of steps the user needs to take to complete this simple-yet-essential modeling task
CADENAS 3Dfindit Integration
CAD SCOUT browser integration
An updated integration with one of our technology partners, CADENAS 3Dfindit, allows users of any version of KeyCreator 2025 to quickly search established parts repositories (distributor websites, etc.) to find models of common components and easily bring them into the KeyCreator workspace. This integration is compatible with the newly released CAD SCOUT 3Dfindit browser extension, which adds even greater efficiency to searches for common components.
Revware Microscribe® CMM Integration
Execute commands from CMM
This enables the MicroScribe stylus can function as an interactive 3D solid sketcher of shapes like blocks, cylinders, and spheres. Used in combination with the Revware CADpad Grid interface option, the user can execute these and other drawing commands directly from the MicroScribe arm.
Drafting Enhancements
Change Detail Callout Color
For instances where it is valuable to call special attention to a certain aspect of a drawing, users can now modify the color of the Detail Callout outline to draw attention to an important or newly-modified aspect of the design.

Interoperability
KeyCreator remains a leader in CAD translation and data re-use capabilities. More than just support for all major CAD 3D/2D native and neutral formats, its direct modeling capabilities let users work with translated geometry with freedom and efficiency parametric modelers cannot deliver.
Kosmos Connected
One significant change to KeyCreator Pro is the adoption of the Kosmos technology found in our 3D Framework for translation of native files from all major 3D CAD systems. This change delivers the most complete translations with improved calculation times and significantly reduced download and installation size.
Faster STEP Import
Enhancements to underlying code enabled a significant improvement to import times of complex STEP, IGES, and IFC files — as much as 80% faster than previous versions. Additionally, import and export of DWG files also saw performance improvements up to 15% faster.
