Develop a CAD project for engineering or another kind of planning by creating a dedicated file in the environment providing multiple tools for writing and editing text-based code, adjusting layers and layouts, using vector paint options, copying, editing, scaling and rotating objects, etc.
SimpleCAD is a 2D CAD application intended for general purposes. Just like most other CAD apps, its interface has the typical layout composed of a canvas in the center and toolbars on the top or the sides. In this case, you can find the tools on the left while the upper bar lets you customize them, for example, setting colors, line sizes and text fonts. However, despite its name, this app is not so simple to use. In fact, depending on your previous experiences, it may have a steep learning curve, which its poor help documentation does not make much flatter.
Fortunately, there are drawing tools that allow creating practically any object, line or text. These include freehand lines, straight lines, curves, parallels, rectangles, polygons, etc. Moreover, you can add text boxes and pictures from external files. Additionally, the objects can be modified in any possible way, like rotating, resizing, moving and copying. Likewise, creating templates from an object or a group of objects allows you to reuse them later, thus saving effort and time.
One of the best things about the app is that it supports working with layers. In this respect, you can benefit from the possibility of hiding specific layers when you are working on complex projects. more
