CAD for Tablets - Android

Richard Sands

I know this isn't Bricscad related, but wonder if others have any recommendations for an Android CAD app that works and interfaces well with Bricscad.
I have a Samsung Note 10.1 that has a stylus which works extremely well with apps that are purpose written.

regards

 Not exactly what you are looking for but I have Samsung Galaxy 10.1. I set up RDP to get to my workstation and can run BricsCAD at 1280x750 resolution remotely. I did need to add special tool bar buttons as a substitute for "spacebar" and "escape".

Cheers,

thanks Lewis
No hadn't envisaged that but sounds interesting.
There are some things I found the stylus is very nice for and I imagine a Windows version PC/ Laptop with touch screen and stylus would be very good for CAD and other work.

Since posting I did find a couple of Apps that I tried. One was a bit short on refinery, and the other was good but I didn;'t get on well with it. Need to put more time into it before passing too much comment.

There's a couple of neat drawing packages for floor plan creations but they are limited to that and nothing else.

Richard, because Android is linux based i recommend to ask in the linux forum.
I only use Turboview for dwg/dxf Bricscad drawings and sometimes AndCAD on Android but only for 2D and small drawings.
