Re: software to do drawings of houses, gardens, etc.

Hello there, if you want to make the investment in learning CAD and want to do drawings programmatically, then FreeCAD with the the CadQuery Module for FreeCAD (https://github.com/jmwright/cadquery-freecad-module) is an elegant option. CheersBrian On Tue, 2017-11-28 at 15:37 +1100, Erik Christia
