For what you get and what you pay for it is quite staggering, really. I purchased iDraw earlier this week and haven't stopped playing around with it. Though, at one point it made me want to jump right back into Illustrator.

My bad, as I'm not really a graphics guru, and I am only now realising what a great piece of software this truly is.

I'm currently retracing my old illustrator 8 (gasp!) tutorial steps along the lines of recreating the same with iDraw, mostly to help me better remember how I did stuff.

The last guy mentioned its quirkiness and that's what almost made me want to abandon it. Here's what I mean...

Say you are wanting to create a circle. You will notice that it will have 4 'Endpoints' well spaced out along its path. Selecting only one of those endpoints will allow you to create a gap. Choosing any of the others will collapse the circle's path.

Just in case you're wondering which one that might be. It's the one I like to refer as being in the '1 o'clock' position.

Oh btw, there is a way in which to create a smaller gap, but you must use the Pen + tool and place the newer endpoint ahead of the 1'o clock positioned endpoint, and it must be ahead in the anti-clockwise position.

To delete it, you must first select it with the Selection tool (the 1 o'clock endpoint) and then simply hit the delete / backspace key.

I'm currently having heaps loads of fun creating an abundance of Olympic rings.

It seems this is now officially a product of Indeeo Inc. Clicking of the developer's site link above will no longer bring you to MacPowerUser Software. I wish MacUpdate would update the info so as to show the present product description IE version 2.0.3

I hope Indeeo, as the new incarnation of MacPowerUser, will behave a little more openly than its predecessor. I was a keen user of iDraw in its former guise and very disappointed when all development ceased. But for years after that the developer continued to take people's money for something that was clearly dead in the water.

The application will not download.

The home page does not work; so is this a sign of something bigger than just a few quirks in the software??

You should withhold your comments on a program unless you know something is definitly not right. The web doesn't exist for u dude. The website is there and works fine, perhaps just not at the exact moment you tried.

this is a great vector graphics program. only reason I don't give it 5's for rating is it can be a bit quirky about a few things. A great companion for GraphicConverter.

Can't seem to find a demo. Users who shell out $25 without at least trying first are foolish.
