Not User Friendly – PadCAD Lite Review

I had this spiffy CAD program fifteen years ago. Ran on Windows 95 or 98. Absolutely loved it; but time stands still for no developer. I was hopeful this app could be similar, but alas! It may very well be that centering a door or a window over a particular coordinate with ones finger is an impossibility without a mouse, but this app has a slider bar available for the x and y. Unfortunately, tapping another element on the screen undos all the progress. Also, there isn't a z (height) feature, so if you want to indicate smaller windows or taller walls, you have to make a separate note from the dimensional text. Also, as others have said, the exterior dimensions of the walls are displayed, not the interior, and it truly is far too easy to slide the elements around the screen accidentally, leaving all the others behind and the user painstakingly re-centering the jostled element back to its original location. I deleted this app and will search for another.
