Todd ( and/or others on all 3 lists who know how to create "Windows viewable
sketches",
This is a "builder documentation" and "builder put out sketches for peer
review" question/issue.
Todd, I looked at your pictures and the color sketch of your coolant system,
a .jpg file.
Did you do the sketch free hand and scan it? Or, did you use some software
product to draw/sketch it?
With your .jpg file sketch opened and viewed by my Kodak "Imaging for
Windows", I studied the Help document and tried some things, to try to learn
how to "draw" - no luck. The drawing toolbar at bottom is greyed out.
- I notice at the very top of screen, it says, after the icon for the
Imaging viewer software: "Coolant flow system.jpg - Imaging [Read Only]"
- Why would it be "Read Only"? Is there a feature like in spreadsheets
which can be "locked" to prevent changing critical cells?
- Is my "bundled" software one of those damnable "lite" (less features)
versions of "real" software?
I have Intellicad, an Autocad clone, to create drawings with, but drawings
created that way require anyone wanting to view it to have a similar
software package, which many do not.
- So, I'm looking for a drawing tool other than Intellicad/Autocad that
can be viewed by anyone with Windows (and the typical viewers bundled with
it).
