Professional Draw 2.0 is a great improvement over 1.0, text can be made
to follow any line,cirlcle or curve. Colors can be blended
automatically and there is a great speed improvement, just to name a few
things...I need more time to use all of the other items, but it looks
like a very professional structured art program that is as good as most
available for the Mac or MSDOS systems...Gold Disk has done an excellent
job!!!! Mike

I was THINKING about buying it, but when I looked at a copy a friend of mine had I said HECK NO! They STILL use the dumb 60 column mode for their menus, and I the WYSIWYG in 2.0 (The onscreen WYSIWYG) is downright UGLY compared to 1.0. In 1.0 it looked so clean... It looks VERY dirty in 2.0. It does have SOME new things in it that make it better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ = /// | Jim Perry | Arc@Desire.Wright.edu = = /// Amiga! | ^Communications Consultant| -or- = = \XX/ The One | Arc Electronics, Inc. | Arc@WSU.BITNET = = ____& Only... | Wright State University |"Ouch!

In-Reply-To: message from Mike.Miller@f210.n110.z1.FIDONET.ORG It'd be nice if Gold Disk was a thurough with the rest of their applications... I know someone who's been waiting for more than a month for the update to Advantage, which, aside from the fact that it can't bleedin' COUNT, is a nice package. Advantage never should have gotten past the beta testers, if it was beta tested at all... To add injury to insult, they're releasing a new business package that looks like it's similar to Lotus Symphony...and it sounds like the spreadsheet is the Advantage code. Along with a very nasty letter, he sent Gold Disk an application for membership in some national organization for quality control...

In-Reply-To: message from arc@desire.wright.edu That's funny...my menus don't seem to be in 60col mode...in fact, aesteticly (sp), you have to LOOK for stuff to show that it's 2.0, the interface hasn't changed a bit, all they added was a bunch of new menu choices. The only differences that I've seen at all between the two versions are the new options, and PD2.0 is alot more stable.

Mike Mike, I agree, I have been using it quite a bit lately to do some security system design layouts for presentation to customers. I am very impressed with the Compugraphic fonts and the output available on dot matrix printers or lasers with low memory running 150 dpi. On a postscript machine it must be very impressive. Now all I have to do is get a flicker fixer! The security systems are being hosted on an Amiga by the way. -Don- -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Don Rumford - via FidoNet node 1:110/300 UUCP: afitamy!rumford ARPA: rumford@afitamy.fidonet.org ---------> The AFIT Amiga Users BBS/UFGateway Dayton, Oh. 1:110/300 Give me Amiga or give me boredom! <-----------------------------------
