Well, I don't use Powerpoint and I've tried LibreOffice Impress but I found it to be clunky and not suited to what I want to draw. Quote: It has very powerful tools for creating diagrams, annotations, symbols, free-hand drawing, etc. Furthermore the result can be exported in a number of different formats. I really wish I had a Mac from the versatility of the software you describe above I have an iPhone X. I don't suppose Keynote runs on that? Quote:But if you require truly scalable graphics in good quality (e.g. in ".svg" format) you will probaly find a dedicted program more useful. Like Adobe Illustrator or similar, but they tend to be quite expensive and require a lot of getting used to. I think I'll have to use this solution, but I'll be using Inkscape, and, it's a real PITA to learn It's funny that I can easily navigate and do schematic capture in Xilinx's Vivado Design Suite, but Inkscape makes me want to pull my hair out I guess I'll just have to get used to it. Quote:Regards That's impressive to say the least! I really wish I had a Mac! Regards, Jonathan EDIT : I also use Alibre Design Expert, and I've been using that since about 2013. Learning that was pretty straightforward as there was a set of tutorial videos that covered just about every aspect of the software. Plus, since it's CAD/CAM software, a lot of the concepts are intuitive and fall right out of one's understanding of one's design in the context of geometry. Aeternitas modo est. Longa non est, paene nil. |
