jME CAD

I’ve been playing around with an idea for jME of making a jME CAD (Computer Aided Design) program, and i was wondering if there is any interest in such a project. the idea would be to take advantage of jME Scene graph system to create a CAD system similar to Inventor or Pro Engineer. I think this would be a great demo of jME, but i don’t have much in the way of a design yet, and i wanted to see if it was worth going farther with this idea.

I think it would be pretty interesting. Plus with the power of shaders you can achieve fairly interesting user interfaces.

I hadn’t thought of using JME for the GUI as well (i was thinking of using swing or something), but i guess that could make the most innovative CAD UI around if we used shaders.

Hello clwillingham,

Any progress in your project? I would like to know if you success with it.

Thanks in advance

You do realize this is a 3 years old post right?

I think it’s a safe bet to say that if there wasn’t any follow up to it, chances are it never went anywhere.
