I did download it and it is incredibly powerful. I did have trouble getting
it to respond the way the tutorial says. Like all complex SF the learning
curve will be steep. Since I currently design in Illustrator and I have
that option, it will take me a while to devote enough time to become
conversant in this SF. I'll get back to you when I do. The pro full version
of this SW is over $900. This looks like it would do anything that I need
it to do (if I can get it to work right!). I particularly like that it
auto-shades shapes as you create them and being able to rotate shapes to
any view during design is a great tool (the reason I wanted a CAD
program!). Like to hear if anyone else is playing with it. And BTW, thanks
a lot for posting this!
