What do you like best?
As a piping designer, our deliverable comprises of isometric drawing and SmartSketch is very advantageous on putting up those drawings.
What I like the most about it is the symbol creation it helps a lot on creating typical detail drawings to be used across users. Also, SmartSketch is very versatile when it comes to conversion of the file to different most-used 2D platforms.
