[PythonCAD] R: Re: PythonCAD should remain focused on 2D until complete

[euro_ii at libero.it]

Ok Guys ...

I do not like Autocad at All... it's an old slow program ...

If 
you try GBG DraftMaker M10  FreeToDesing you can understand what is a good 
mecanical 2d cad ....

For my point of view, we have to think at what feature 
really help the user do develop a fast 2d drawing...
Actually 90% of the 
Mechanical parts need a 2d Drawing to be done ...( OK most of this caming from 
3d )..
Actually all the opensource 3d program have a very beed 2d parts ...(May 
be they need PythonCad) 

So i think that we need to explore in deep the 
iso/ansi/jis standards and put as mutch as possible in PythonCad.

I like the 
user interface like it is ...
Of course we need a toolbar .. as Gertwin suggest 
a configurable palette will be a good idea ...Most the people that use Autocad 
have thousend of icons on the application, but they most used are 4/5 of it..


Now me and the developer team have started the R38 version ...

We can decide 
all togheder witch feature to implement for that version.

I think that we can 
start to think at the user interface for the R40 ......


Thanks
Matteo
