Today I want to present you – in a short article – a very useful piece of software named TouchDraw. TouchDraw is a vector drawing application for the Mac. I searched for a useful flow diagram software and this is it. The current version 1.7.1 is only available in english language but this is ok.
TouchDraw is a retina optimized application that gives you everything you need to create structured 2D vector graphics such as flow charts, graphs, diagrams, illustrations, logos and floor plans just to name a few. TouchDraw for the Mac is fully compatible with the iPad version and files can be freely exchanged between both versions.
TouchDraw differs from a paint program in that objects are always managed independently of the drawing they’re in. You can move a figure around, change it’s shape, change it’s color, group it, without affecting other shapes that are around around.
Feature List:
Shape Libraries
Create your own libraries of re-usable shapes, or use one of the bundled libraries. The following libraries are included with TouchDraw:
- Common networking shapes
- Basic Flowcharting
- Basic Architectural shapes
- Basic Icon Library
- Balloons and Callouts
- Simple Shapes (hearts, diamonds, arrows, etc…)
- Import, Export and Sharing
Export your drawings via the following formats:
- Bitmap Image (JPEG, PNG, BMP, TIFF)
- SVG
- Visio (VDX/XML Drawing format only)
- EPS
To see the full feature list and some additional screenshots you should visit the Mac App Store or at Elevenworks.com . The price for the Mac Version is 17,99 €. It seems to be a bit pricy but its worth every € cent.
Unfortunately you have to buy the MacOS and the iOS app seperatly. That’s a negative point, but all in all I’m very happy with this software.
