Hi, i remember having a trial version of a simple CAD drafting program on my Palm T3 for a bit (before i got rid of the T3 and got a Z). It was called ZipCAD, i think. It was cool.

Is there anything that will run on the Z that will let you draw in a semi-exact way. I just want to design some gadgets and need to be able to make angles and lines of specific lengths.

Just hoping.

Here's the site for Construct: http://www.the-b.org/~jackyl/construct/

I remember trying out a cool Java CAD program on my C760 a while back, but I can't remember what it was called. Anyone have any idea?

Un-freaking-believable. What some people do in their spare time.

Well, if i could solve all my other needs today as speedily as that, i'd be set!

Thanks

Unfortunately i can't get Construct to save. The save dialog is a big blank box. Has anyone successfully saved and restored a design in Construct?

If you remember the name of the java app, please let me know. I did a search, but couldn't find anything that would run on the Z hardware.

First time I saved I got this big blank white box as you said, but I did save the drawing in a folder under Documents/image/dxf/ as New_Drawing. The next time I started construct I went to file->open
it showed New_Drawing as an option to load.
