there's no professional CAD for linux, especially for woodworking: http://www.ribbonsoft.com/de/qcad.html A commercial solution is VariCAD, but it's mainly for the engineering market. Besides xfig, there's qcad, a simple 2D only CAD system. You can even try Inkscape CVS which supports snapping to object borders and edges. There has been a specialized woodworking CAD called LignumCAD, but the author stopped some years ago due to some "real life" circumstances. See lingunmcad.sf.net for details. It's 3D, uses openGL for rendering and mainly consists of a set of parametric objects. Best regards ce -- [email protected] mailing list
