Great software, left to die by Autodesk

It was clear that once Autodesk purchased Indeeo, that they would let iDraw (Graphic) die with no updates. And that is exactly what has happened, having had no updates in two years. You would be nuts to pay money for this software and invest the time to learn it now. It is a pity, as it was a good product (which presumably Autodesk purchased to eliminate as competition or to acquire some IP)

I love this App but it has recently lost some functions

I love this progam and use it several times every day, and have done so for several years. I find it very intuitive and easy to use.

Recently (and I don't know if it is related to OS upgrades or Computer upgrade or software failure) i have lost all my stored gradients and patterns (which I use regularly for my client's work)

Also I am unable to create NEW gradients or patterns or to be able to save them.

Long time user, leaving before it fails

I have used this app for many years but its been 5 years since the last update. I guess it will die in a MacOS update at some stage so its time to switch to something else.

My "something else" is Amadine. It does everything that Graphic does, often in a more intuitive manner. It also does things Graphic cannot do.
Exporting from Graphic as SVG and importing into Amadine work OK except for glitches that seem to be caused by the way Graphic exports SVGs.
