    On my Mac, running Blender 4.2, it works so badly that I eventually had to uninstall it.

    Concept-wise I love this addon, I always found Blender's modelling paled in comparison to Sketchup, which is what this addon is trying to do, translating Sketchup modelling to Blender. However, holyheck it's busted. It does a lot right, a lot not quite right. I seem to have the magic ability to make it break as soon as I start using it, it genuinely comes across to me as a skill issue though. If there is a place I can submit bugs when I find them, I'd happily use it since this is one of the few addons for blender I'm going to be deeply invested in just due to the fact it's a infinitely huge improvement on Blender's modelling system, until it breaks in a way I don't understand.

    In it's current state, I'd probably rate the addon a 3/5, but since I know I'm going to forget to update it, I'll set it to 4/5 since it's a addon worthy of praise, it's still just half baked.

      Thanks for the review, Nate. Please do get in touch to report any issues (https://www.dndrawings.com/feedback), I always respond. I'm working on the next release, so if there are some bugs, I'll fix for this coming release.

    The tools for this addon are great. My only issue is that it makes Blender run very sluggishly for me. With it uninstalled Blender is super fast. Not sure if there is an addon conflict or not. I do have a beefy PC so I know its not that.

      Thanks for the review, Frank. It sounds like there's a conflict with another 3rd party add-on. Can you contact me through my website form and I'll help resolve the issue?

    This is exactly what I was looking for. I hope you continue developing this add-on. I can't imagine Blender without it.

    My professional background is in civil engineering. I rarely use Blender in my work but often for private projects. I've always found it a bit tedious to work accurately and to scale with Blender. This addon helps me tremendously with such kind of projects. In addition to the construction lines, my favourites are clearly the object snap and the improved Extrude tool.

    Great product - looking forward to seeing it developed more! Love how it echoes Sketchup functionality - until this came along snapping / drawing lines + arcs in Blender was so painful to be accurate.

      Thanks John. I'm working on updates at the moment so will have another release out soon.
