Great program. I've just finished drawing my new house. Takes a bit of practice to use it when you learn it. It great!!!! Good work. Keep it up.

QCad quick look

by Anonymous on Nov 29, 2002

Spent 2 hrs having a look at qcad version 1.4.6 on my
Mandrake 8.2 system -

Good points:

. free
. professional look and feel
. excellent documentation

Needs more work:

. some must-have features not there yet, such as arrows
for panning the view left right etc.
. tried to draw a large rectangle 600mm x 2mm - couldn't
find a way to do it - seem to have to zoom out and
then in again, loses the rectangle drawing mode
. a couple of bugs showed up - elements created in one layer ended up in another

This is great work, I am very interested in seeing
newer versions

Does everything it promisses. (therefore I gave it a 5)
It can be used to do what is needed in 2D-drawing. I enjoy working with it, now that I got the hang of it. I could think of things to be included and sometimes it just turns to work quite slow without me having an idea why.

Great tool! - adding shp (http://gdal.velocet.ca/projects/shapelib/index.html) functionality will make QCad very usefull for GIS users...

Lack of one feature kills the good CAD program

Qcad could be ok. But his creator forgot that the software should be user friendly.
You cannot pan through the image! You have to zoom out then click the centre of requested view, and then zoom in again ! What IDEA !
After while you want to hit your computer right between its eyes.
Adding two sliders could make QCad a very usable CAD.
Some sort of this feature exists in the wishlist but (sic!) with the LOWEST PRIORITY .... pity
