I take it that I am in the wrong forum when asking where to find tutorials on this subject?

I think the problem is that no one here simply uses that. I have played with QuickCAD before but not with AutoSketch. Does the help section even touch on this subject? Can it even be done?

Unbeknownst to me, Autosketch and Quick Cad have the same basic features and have been produced side-by-side for years.

I have just tried Autosketch 9, and it is basically the same as Qiuck Cad 8, with a few more features.

It's a great program to use if you don't need the full blown version of Cad. I tried Autocad LT, but found it way too hard to learn as a self-taught program.

I found a Tutorial CD available from the US for $2.00 US, but they want $12.99 US to ship it to Canada. By the time it got here, it would cost me $50.00. But money isn't the point here. If Autodesk took the time to write educational step-by-step video tutorials, or even a manual with examples, there would be a lot less people pulling their hair out, like me.

I am very skeptical about a $2.00 CD without first viewing a portion of it.

I have even been to Chapters, E-Bay and Amazon looking for books on the subject, with the same results, 'NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME', or 'OUT OF PRINT". I mean c'mon! Autosketc 9 has been out for almost a year now.

Thanks

Another problem is that there is no demo download or cd. I just about refuse to even look at anything unless there is a demo to play with.
