 This  Software  finds  extensive  use  for  students  of  
 Engineering  ,  Architects , Fashion designers , and
 school students with  Machine  Drawing  in  their  syllabus.
 All the basic drawing tools which are required in a 2D
 CAD software are available for the user like line ,
 rectangles , arcs , ellipses , chords, pies etc.
Various Filling Styles ,Pen Styles and colors can be 
chosen at runtime along with these tools .User can also
 add custom text  and choose any font.
 The biggest advantage of the software is the fully
 functional undo / redo feature  with which u can erase
 steps to the beginning . Also if u save a file and after
 some days u realize that u have made some errors and 
want to undo a particular line u can easily do that.
 Files are saved in the " *.2d " file format and can be
opened by double clicking on them from the windows
 explorer.
 Variable grid sizes are displayed and the user can 
choose the most suitable grid size for him ( 4 grid 
sizes available ) . Also user can turn off displaying 
the grids and   also choose free motion grid in which
 the mouse motion is independent of the grid.
 On the Status Bar  the current (X , Y) coordinates 
are displayed when moving the mouse .Also when mouse 
is dragged the current (dX , dY) coordinates are
 displayed along with the angle of inclination.
 After the drawing is complete the user can choose the 
Measuring Line with which the default distance comes in
 the dialog box and can be changed to any  text by the
 user.
 On Right Clicking the mouse it starts acting like a 
scroll bar. For this to work you'll have to stop 
MouseLmp if it is installed on your computer.
 Another advantageous feature is that it displays 
center of figures like rectangles , arcs etc. which 
makes it easier to draw concentric objects and measure 
distances.
 With the copy tool the client screen is copied to 
 the clipboard and can be retrieved as a bitmap using 
your favorite image software. This helps to make this 
software compatible with various image handling 
softwares. 
 Exceptionally good tips provide the user with all the 
help required to start off with this application .Users
can also add  their own tips in the tips file.
 The programming environment used is 32 bit and full
