![]() ![]() ![]() It even allows me to figure the material cost of my panels. Whether I'm working with lead or foil or both in the same panel, this program does it all. I use Glass Eye 2000 on 95% of the work that I produce. This program takes all the hard and technical work of designing away from me and lets me get to what I like doing best - Creating. I know how my panel will look before I cut my first piece of glass. You can even add your glass and texture files to there already large library of glass files, and at a touch of a button or two I can change the glass color or resize the pattern to what ever size I want. No more running to the copy store or guessing what color glass I should use. Right from the start I was able to use the program without any training or experience. Pros: I have been using Glass Eye 2000 for several years now and I just love it. If your computer crashes you need to call them for a re-load but its no big deal. The software paid for its self on the first window, and I wrote the up-grade off on my taxes the next year. It saved me from buying a $6,000 plotter and plotter paper. The program may seem pricey if your used to free ware but I can use a $99 printer and print a 40' x 40' pattern by tiling and taping. Like everyone I've changed out my share of glass. The colors are not exact but no picture does stained glass justice. Its just good drafting habits or you will spend a little time to get all your pieces to take color. Cons: Like all CAD software you need to design clean and make all lines connect. They had me back running in one phone call. As far a customer service, I never needed them till last month when the computer crashed and I had to reload. Nothing like a signed approval before committing to a $1500 window. Customers love that we can choose colors to get an idea of the effects. The library designs are nice, but I do mostly original. I've taken complex pictures from my camera, traced and colored in 45 min. I can scan in a basic pattern from a book and trace it into the program in 5 min. Pros: This is a great software for the beginner or pro. It supports your design work with a set of custom tools that make drawing, alignments, symmetry, measurement, and resizing easy. Glass Eye 2000 gives you the freedom to design virtually any window you can imagine. It supports your design work with a set of custom tools. I updated to a semi-professional system, so I spent close to $400 for NOTHING!!! I don't recommend this software. So, without any guarantee, I need to spend another $100 or so to get a new operating system IN THE HOPE that this software will work. ![]()
