Hello Vince

If your needs go beyond basic 2D drafting, I would suggest looking at SweetHome3D.

*Sweet Home 3D* is a free interior design application
which helps you draw the plan of your house, arrange furniture onĀ it and visit the results in 3D.

Hope this helps.

Hi:

I am using Windows10x64bit Home on DELL desktop and LO 7.3.2.2 (x64) / LibreOffice Community.

I have never made any use of the LO Draw module in the past, and wonder if it is suitable for creating a 2-dimension drawing that shows room layout with dimensions, to scale if possible.

My immediate need is to create a document/drawing of the household room dimensions, e.g., square footage dimensions, as if I needed to paint the ceiling or the walls or needed to lay down carpeting or hard wood flooring, or calculate/show square footage of lawn areas, etc.

Is LO Draw the appropriate module for me to learn? Or, is there some other program that is simpler to learn and to use?

Up till now I have been making a hand sketch of the area of interest, scan the sketched layout, create a PDF and then type/enter dimensions as text annotations within the PDF. I think there might be a simpler method.

I look forward to receiving suggestions/comments from the LO Draw community users. In the meantime, I will be reading the LO Draw Users Guide.

Regards,

VinceB.
