SteamCAD2

SteamCAD2 is an evolution of SteamCAD, a 2D CAD especially designed to draw steam
locomotives.

What's new in SteamCAD2

SteamCAD was a first version of a 2D CAD versatile enough to draw an arbitrary black
and white techical drawing. The aim of SteamCAD2 is to fix some issues and also add
new functionality. These are namely:

• the whole core was completely rebuilt to improve the rendering speed
• creating paths consisting of one or more segments, this is especially usefull when
  rendering patterned lines
• added abilities to control line join shapes and dash endings
• the MS Windows rendering was changed from GDI to GDI+, thus giving Windows users
  nearly the same experience like the Linux users
• the previous point allowed to use the internal backend dash line rendering, which
  will improve the performance and also the postprocessing in export formats
• the lines can have an arbitrary colour in SteamCAD2
• filled areas can be created
• raster images can be imported and registered for the drawing
• spline editing capability added

SteamCAD2 is 2D CAD especially designed to draw steam locomotives like this example:
