Hi,
Just to let you know I have just put up a new public preview of my
drawing program for OS X. It is still pretty basic at the moment but
there have been a number of improvements. If you are interested you are
welcome to download it and give it a whirl. More regular updates to
follow.

Some of the new features and improvements include a new line shape
object, a bunch of fixes to the polygons and groups and a semi
customizable tool palette (actually a listbox).
The application can only create rectangles,lines and polygons however
these can be grouped and resized correctly. The shapes can also be
rotated, locked, cut, copied, pasted and duplicated with unlimited
undo/redo. Layers, scaling and multiple documents are also sup****ted. It
has nice rulers too!
Even though this is an alpha version most of what has been implemented
works correctly and the application is decidedly uncrashy. I am using
Thomas Cunninghams excellent CoreGraphics classes and modules to do the
actual drawing. His classes do nice quality Quartz drawing with alpha
transparency and anti aliasing for little effort.
