I will resend the message when I get back home (assuming it is still in my sent box), this time with links.
Ok, I'm still in Montreal, but I got Internet access with my own computer, so I figured I'd send this along now. I actually don't have the email I originally sent anymore, but the idea was that I was excited about the 3D tools idea that came up earlier in the week. I took some screen shots of the two basic tools in DRAW - extrude and perspective. I was wondering if this was the kind of thing that you imagined. I don't think the UI is the greatest on those tools so there is a lot of potential to do something similar but with better usability.
The basic pics are here (showing the tools used on a rectangle): http://gbanaszk.oasis.nexus.carleton.ca/SummerOfCode/DrawExtrude.png http://gbanaszk.oasis.nexus.carleton.ca/SummerOfCode/DrawPerspective.png
I also saw the multi-page thing and thought that would be a big bonus. I know that a huge plus of DRAW over Illustrator is this ability.
The DRAW import is an interesting prospect. Is this ever something a company wants to "help" an open source project with? I imagine they don't really want their format out do they? Not sure how that all works.
Cheers! Gail
