Hey, from the mountains of North Carolina,
I will start down your list.
I looked at Google Sketchup. Some easy, some fun, I got it to import my photo, stepped around up to the "click open button" step.........What open button?
where??? I worked at it for too long, got a headache then numbed my brain to sleep with David Attenburough narrating a nature special (best sleep aid in the world!!).
Dave (my programmer in Arizona) said his raster to CAD gave him a fuzzy picture that he had to draw over then erase the fuzzy. Is that the state of our technology? I should not complain....Like I should not TELL you that your program plunged in the wrong spot. I should have asked or better yet keep my mouth shut while I am being lead through the darkness to the light.
Thanks,
Fred
