Sketsa is a cross-platform vector drawing application based on SVG. Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is a graphics format and technology based on XML developed by W3C. With Sketsa, you can create vector graphics that can be scaled and printed at any resolution, without losing detail or clarity. You also get instant visual feedback on what you changed.
Sketsa features various tools for optimizing content creation, giving designers unsurpassed support for creativity. These tools include property palette, DOM editor, source editor, resources editor, SVG specific shape tools, transformation tools, and additional illustration tools. It uses SVG as a native file format.
ANONYMOUS This is a "generic" Java application. There's a Java (.jar) installer and a PC (.exe) file in the download. Installing it (via the .jar file on a Mac) does not result in a Mac-like application or icon; it requires a command line start via Java. Discovering that, I wasn't interested any more and trashed all. It doesn't have to be this way, either. CrushFTP, to name just one example, is in Java, but it behaves like a normal application on both a Mac (OS 9) or a PC. (Version 2.1)
IAN WEIR There is a much easier way to get and use this program, which is actually suggested by the readme file. Simple go to http://www.kiyut.com/products/sketsa/index.html and click the Launch Web Start button.
It will handle the download and install for you, and from then on you can open it just by opening the application it creates, no need to do anything whatsoever with the command line. (Version 3.2.1)

S. C. STONE That, to me, still sounds pretty absurd. It's a cheap attempt, for a company who's software is obviously made for Windows, to sell in the Mac market. (Version 3.2.1)
