Now at version 4.50 with lots of great new practical features. Perhaps the most interesting (for me anyway) is the ability to find the centre of area of complex shapes – polycurves and polygons with many hundreds or thousands of sides for example. The Command Line feature is also more developed in this version and is becoming really a useful alternative. I have also started to use the ability to write Scripts to perform functions that are not included in the standard program (with the help of the developer I have to say!), but which suit specific things I want to do. The program is very full-featured and very flexible with many modes of working to suit almost any user. Highly recommended.

I too have been a Claris CAD user for many years, designing many many yachts from 8' through to 100' and Claris CAD was certainly a great program to use. I switched to RealCADD about three years ago because my new mac's wouldn't run classic any more and I also wanted to transfer files to DXF format for CNC cutting of parts (I used to do this via Claris Translator). Ok - so RealCADD has a few glitches and it is obviously slightly different from ClarisCAD. But one has to spend time learning any new program if one is to use it in depth and professionally. I have found it to be an excellent replacement for ClarisCAD, possessing many excellent features that ClarisCAD did not possess – the most important of which for me is the ability to draw parallels from polyline curves. And the developer is very amenable to adding new features if requested – a huge improvement over ClarisCAD, where one had to wait for a new version to come out (didn't often happen). Maybe the earlier versions that got bad reviews were not so good as the present version – but the current version is excellent and I can work faster and much more accurately that was possible with ClarisCAD. Overall a great program at a reasonable price.

as an engineer, i am well informed about the cad apps. that are available that time. some are pure nonsense (e.g. realcadd, sorry), others expensive and/or non-intuitive... and none can be found that works exactly like my beloved classic 2D ClarisCAD. that makes me verrrry sad.
