Not at all intuitive, 3.0 was better. Takes forever to get a drawing in there, dimensions are hard to get correct, confusing 'snapping' parameters. Views are better than 3.0, that's it.

There has to be something better out there.

Promises much, delivers very little. Don't believe the hype. It looks good from a distance, but up close it's more hassle than help. Installing the software (exactly per instructions) was the worst experience I have ever had installing any software. After following all of the support advice on the website, error messages appear regularly. You must turn off all hardware acceleration to see the walls you draw. The real surprise came when I tried to put a door in the wall. Seems reasonable, doesn't it? I mean, we all use doors, right? Just about any structure you would draw would have at least one door, right? Not in this world. There is no capacity to insert a door or opening in any wall. Per the manual, once you have the landscaping program (they install together, and you can't have one without the other) the DOORS command is not available. So, you can't have doors. Sorry. So, I am stuck with a software package that can't be returned. This product is a borderline rip-off. Don't waste your money.
