Chris D Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 I downloaded this and tried it on my iPad last night. It's surprisingly full featured really...not just a viewer, but an editor. It's lacking one key aspect to be useful...you can't actually create new files within the app - you can only view and edit files that you have uploaded to your AutoCAD WS web space. Of course, a workaround for this would be to create a load of blank files in your web space and edit them as 'new' files each time you need a new file. The benefit of this would be you could pre-load your blanks with some useful pre-drawn blocks (symbols) etc. I can see myself using this for the odd site survey, in the absence of a VW app for the iPad.

Chris D Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 It does look rather like it's from the 1970's....with its coloured lines on a black background. You can work in greyscale but not with coloured lines on a white background. Quote Link to comment
