[Hello, a few Q's about Technical Drawing with PDN.]

I read the rules. I searched. I ran out of patience.

 

Back story: I do a lot of technical drawing using MS Paint ( win 7 ) and I like how fast it is and easy but....

 

 

Circles: Draw circle from center point ( dragging out the radius.... ) will this be a feature in the future?

Lines: Simple line drawing ( lines are squared with no need to hold down shift ) .

Lines: Continuous ( you can draw a box in one go etc )

Angles: Set an angle and then draw lines at that angle etc.

 

Above are things I would like.... dreams a free...

 

Essentially I am trying to find an alternative to MS Paint that uses the raster graphics and is 2D tech drawing style.

 

Any advice?

 

I was a programmer I would make my own drawing program, but I am not. I was hoping that PDN would

be the replacement for MS paint... but it's pretty much the same for what I do. Oh well.

 

It's pretty much the circles that kill the buzz, drawing them out from the corner is just lax programming and

could be fixed pretty easily. The zoom out from a point in PDN proves that centre point circles can be done ( MS paint has the zoom stuck to the top left corner...)

as it's the same mathematics in play.

 

I really do not want to go to vector CAD... I love MS Paint....

 

Thanks!
