This is my first time posting anything on the NET so please be patient. I am looking fog Vixx.???, I have seen postings of others looking for it also but I have not recieved the actual program. Also, has anyone used a program called 'The Graphic Artist'?, I have a demo version and it looks good but you can only tell so much from a demo with no docs. I have used Autocad and other mainframe CAD programs. The demo looks really good, I am just wondering how easy it is to use. It looks well worth the money. Thanks in advance, Wally Wilinsky (blaise).

The Graphic Artist is an easy to uae CAD package. It includes spreadsheets piecharts and barcharts. In terms of drawings I would say it is fast and and flexible. It can access A-D size plotters as well as dot matrix and laser printers.(There is some diddling around needed by the user to make the plotter drivers do B,C and D size but it can be done). The product has no dimensioning functions and plot scale is not exact without some experimentation. The price has been dropping lately and they have separated out the font editor which is fun for user defined symbols. It can scale and rotate as well as having symbol pattern retrieval.
