CADOO.o

Such as, the Draw module of OpenOffice.org makes it possible to make technical drawing. CADOO.o adds some functions that one can find in other CAD.

For example:
* a wider set of anchor with the graphic entities (ends, intersection, middle, perpendicular, tangent) ;
* input of absolute or relative coordinates Cartesian or polar ;
* input of the radius, diameters or lengths ;
* an axonometric mode to constrain to horizontal, vertical, 45° direction ;
* draw a circle passing by three points ;
* dimension of radius, diameter, angle, horizontaly or verticaly.

Note: drawing line, circle, arc, ellipse, arc of ellipse, polygon already exist but they were rewritten to benefit from the modes above without replacing the originals.

This Addon was written in python with use of the module pyuno.
The name "CADOO.o" was proposed by Patrick GIMBERTEAU whom I thank.
