Hi.

I am looking for a simple geometry drawing program. Nothing too elaborate with a steep learning curve. Just the axes in 2d so I can draw not very elaborate geometric figures and put and move coordinates, etc. Zooming in or out the drawing.

Any suggestions.

Thanks

Sounds like a little CAD program might fit the bill.

I've used QCAD (http://www.qcad.org/qcad.html) and found it pretty easy to use and I'm not a draftsperson.

Thank you I will look at it.

Have a look at CADstd (http://www.cadstd.com/) if your platform is Windows. There is a feature limited free version of it. (That said, I find I don't really miss the features that are limited at all)

Geonext is a simple and free (for educational and home use) geometry program: http://geonext.uni-bayreuth.de/

You can construct various geometric figures, zoom in and out, move points to see how it effects the overall construction etc.

Yes that is exactly what I need.

The cad program are a bit overkill for what I need.

Thanks for all the suggestions.
