      SKP 7 introduced one of my favorite features ever- automatic breaking of intersecting lines. This is amazing for drafting, however sketchup largely falls short on the 2d front. Is anyone aware of another drafting program that automatically intersects overlapping lines? Much appreciated,

          I've been using TIGs plug for a while now. By limited drafting features I am mainly referring to working with facetted curves, no draw order control (acad hatch). Basically I'm mostly doing 2d these days so I feel I should be using a 2d package instead of a 3d package with a lot of work arounds. The only other vector program I know of with auto intersect paths is macromedia flash! Any other applications ?

            I was actualling going to suggest Flash...but you're already aware of it; and it's not the first thing that comes to mind when thinking of drafting applications.
            Unfortunately, I can't think of any others; and thinking about how such programs function, such a feature would be mostly hugely counter-productive. I don't imagine any CAD programs would oblige; and sticking with the more artistic packages, Illustrator and CorelDraw certainly won't do it either. I'm not sure of some of the 'B list' like Serif Draw.
