Found one bug that you will probably never notice being a new CAD user, Draftsight are aware and sorting but it does not affect the programme. Not found anything missing yet, works exactly like AutoCAD and have not even looked at the guide or help screens. Then found Draftsight, wish I had found it earlier.

#DRAFTSIGHT AUTOCAD PRO#

When the Pro version reverted to the standard version after a month I lost the ability to create blocks and fell out with the programme, its a vital tool for me.

The more I did with it the more differences I found and I hate having to refer to manuals constantly. Started to look and came across DoubleCAD XT, loaded it up and it looked pretty much like AutoCAD and worked OK to produce a simple drawing. Back in 1996 I bought a copy of TurboCAD and hated it thus tried to avoid paying for useless software.

I don't use CAD at home much now but occationally its very useful and I didn't want to spend the money to buy the latest 2011 LT for use it would get, cannot get Academic software now unfortunately. Taught City and Guilds for a while at the local college.Д«ought a new laptop in January, Windows 7 and my latest licenced for home use AutoCAD which is 2002 will not install. Been using AutoCAD professionally since 1994, started with release 12 for dos and now using LT2011, used everything in between. But after a brief look at the site, now I'm looking at model engine machining aspect too! Looks very interesting!!ДЇirst post and think I can help on this. Like I've said, I found the forum from my interest in CAD. I would be very interested in your findings and opinions!! What I'm hoping for is some of the CAD experts on this forum that have used Auto CAD and Draftsight to download DoubleCAD XT, compare the packages in terms of user friendliness and AutoCAD LT work-alike. I find Double CAD XT more intuitive and user-friendly than Draftsight (maybe because DoubleCAD XT is so much like TurboCAD) but not sure of the AutoCAD LT work-alike element. This is frustrating, because I minimal CAD skills and have never used AutoCAD LT!!! I have downloaded both Draftsight and DoubleCAD XT (both free) to determine how much of a AutoCAD LT work-alike they actually are. I can not find reference to DoubleCAD XT which is touted as a Auto CAD LT work-alike. It looks like Draftsight is pretty well thought of on this forum. So I'm looking for a AutoCAD LT work-alike. Although not a AutoCAD course, the school recommends AutoCAD R2000 - R2008. I have enrolled in a 'Drafting with CAD' course at a local community college. The tutorial information provided by BigOnSteam is simply OUTSTANDING!! WOW, some excellent information and recommendations. I have spent a lot of time on the 'Draftsight - Free 2D CAD' thread. I'm a newbie and found the forum with a Google search on 'Draftsight review'.
