> 3 dayThis product is marketed as an easy to use solution for some home project design. Not the case. Perhaps if you are an expert with other CAD programs this one would come easy to you. I literally spent 8 hours trying to lay out a simple room. Best I could do? Four walls. Could not even figure out how to put a door in the wall or add a window. Tossed it. Simple it is not. Pulled up my Visio and had the room laid out in 10 minutes to my satisfaction and it did everything this program claimed it would do. Lesson learned on my part. Use what you know.

Greater than one weekThe product has a steep learning curve, it doesnt have a manual so you have to youtube or trail and error.

> 3 dayReading the box, I was excited that it mentioned that it could use things saved in .dae files. This sparked my interest since I am making mesh objects for use in a virtual world. Other reviews mentioned the program being difficult to use for those not experienced in other DAD programs. I felt confident since I have used CAD programs for a long time. The program installed easily from the CD. Then I went to the file menu expecting to see import as one of the options. It wasn’t there. I did a help search for import and found a reference to importing DXF files in which it indicated that I should go to the file menu and select the import DXF option. No mention of other formats and that option wasn’t on the file menu anyway. I did find over in the 3D drop down a place where I could pick up objects that I had with the .dae format and that did work as I could see the object I was expecting. It could be that if one is very persistent this program may have benefits over other solutions.
