Looking for CAD/Drafting Program

Edwards Finance > CAD Drafting

Q. Can anyone recommend a good (and inexpensive!) CAD/Drafting program?

A. -Imagineer Technical 2.0 is available now. Smartmouse, Smartsketch, Freesketch, DocObject/Web-Charged, VB Automation, Office 97 certified, Kenimatics, works with AutoCAD & Microstation data. [inexpensive: $495]: http://www.intergraph.com/imagine buy online at the express checkout: http://www.intergraph.com/express/ or: http://www.intergraph.com/express/Catalog/imagine.asp -Give Intergraph's Imagineer Technical 2D CAD (version 2.0) product a looksee. It's very inexpensive and is very easy to learn/use. Plus it is very sophisticated with the constraint system tied in with the Smartmouse, Smartsketch, and Freesketch. It anticipates (configurably) how you want to constrain graphic elements and what kind of elements to draw. FYI - after constraining two graphic elements, modifying one will cause the other to modify itself respectively. How many CAD programs are FULLY capable of doing everything OLE and VB would allow? Imagineer. How many CAD programs carry the Designed for Windows 95, Windows NT 4.0, and Microsoft Office 97 logos? Imagineer. How many CAD programs can integrate with Internet Explorer (we call it being "Web Charged")? Imagineer. I could go on, but here is an URL to a list of the _really_ unbelievable list of features supported: http://www.intergraph.com/imagine/fandb.htm Take a few minutes to looksee. You will be both pleased and suprised. You cannot find any other CAD product that will allow you to work faster or smarter that with Imagineer.
