Karim,
I happen to like the look of the user interface. It definitely has the
"Adobe" look and feel. It also looks like the best interface I have seen,
although it looks like it adds a little to the learning curve. Of course,
added power comes at the price of added complexity.
Has Michael Lachmann seen this? I think that he would be the most likely
programmer to take this on, based on how often he updates MLCAD. Perhaps he
could implement this type of interface for MLCAD v2.0.
