CAD programs, Circuit design programs

[Guest22]

Can anyone recommend a program for drawing electrical circuits? Ive used autoCAD electrical but find it fiddly to use.
Wondered if anyone else has some good programs!

Thanks
Ethan

Autocad is the industrial standard, and if your submitting drawings for approval its a must.
A good click wheel mouse helps, and abaut 5 years on learning all the short cuts (believe me there are many)
There are plenty of other programs such as Visio and Quick Cad. But Stick with Autocad as theres no other program touches it.

I would like to design a few hardware things and have no background whatsoever. But one of my ideas regards photo equipment and I think it could be a great product. So I would like to start designing it myself. If autocad takes 5 yrs to learn, how about programs like this one? Looks pretty neat to me. Like excel super-advanced :joker: It would be great if the software doesn't take ages to learn how to use it.
