Hi,

Commenting post 292: Hi, It was basically made to draw 2D objects, exactly like autocad or draftsight. Since freecad is primarily made for 3D, however, the draft module was never pushed as far as those commercial apps, and you'll certainly find many features missing if you compare with them. But if what needs to be done is relatively simple, I would say it should get the job done. And you can always export to dxf and continue in another app if you bump against the limitations of the draft module, the compatibility is fairly good.

I am also currently working on some minor features that were missing since a long time, like hatching support and stretch, that should be added pretty soon.
