MacDraft P.E. is a software program that embeds multiple functionalities that professionals and CAD enthusiasts can use to develop original 2D designs of inside and outside environments.
It has a fast and easy installation process that can be completed by any type of user. The main GUI consists of multiple windows, complex toolbars and panels. The learning process can be quite slow, while the toolbar icons miss description tags and look a bit too small. Also, the memory consumption can be high at times.
When you start to use its features, you discover multiple templates, from stylish garden and landscape designs, to floor and buildings designs. Depending on the chosen environment, you can make modifications to plants, trees, different structures, doors, windows, furniture and appliances.
More, by using powerful vector tools, you can combine line styles, scale, graphics and dimensions and export your projects to DWG. The program can be used to draw charts, street or topographical maps.
All things considered, MacDraft P.E. is a complex tool for creating 2D CAD projects of various environments.
