Get a Hand-Drawn Look Right Inside Vectorworks!
"Doodle! gives a much needed presentation feature to Vectorworks. Unlike other 'squiggle' programs, Doodle! works within Vectorworks, eliminating the need to export drawings. The results are outstanding! A must-have for anyone doing client presentations. "

New in Doodle! 11:
Preview Doodle Style:
Click the "Preview Selected Style" button in Doodle and you will be presented with a before and after preview image. The preview gives you a quick idea of what the settings will look like. Clicking "OK" in the dialog (shown in the screenshot below) takes you back to the Doodle dialog. This allows you to customize the settings to you liking much faster than in previous versions of Doodle.

Doodle Pen Color Option:
Allows a custom pen color for all doodled lines (including doodle hatch lines). The image (below) to the left is is perfectly black. This lessons the realism and creates a "harder" image. The image to the right is a very dark custom doodle pen color. This increases the realism by softening the image making the ink appear to bleed into the paper.

More “human” Doodle Hatches and Marker Fills:
The hatch lines and marker strokes are not perfectly parallel creating a more human look. Previous versions of Doodle created more perfectly parallel hatches and markers making them appear rigid. The examples below show the more natural look of them in Doodle 11.
