*Vector-like Editing

Flexibility first! Any object you create is editable all the time. You can change shapes, group objects, move them in layers, resize, edit envelopes etc. Any object has its own changeable properties like color, texture, outline, lights, material, transparency, multiple 3D effects, bevels, shadows, motion blur and much more.

*Bitmap Editing

Unlike in a normal vector editor you can actually paint directly onto any vector object using airbrushes, 3D or Artistic brushes and special Image Nozzles. You can paint on the canvas and the strokes will become another object to which you can apply effects, just as with vector objects. No other program can do this.

*3D Effects

You can apply various bevels and extrude effects to any object or bitmap to create perfect three-dimensional work. You can get even closer to rendered-like image by applying an unlimited number of 3D lights to any object or by changing its material properties. For example, Real-DRAW PRO makes it very easy to create realistic metallic textures - often a big problem in standard vector drawing packages.

*Illustration Package

The combination of Real-DRAWs tools allows you to create drawings in your style - illustrations, 3D render simulations, airbrush work, kids illustration, engraving, you name it - you have the full control.

*Hand-Painted Style

Not many software offers a vector-editable hand-painted style. And very few can come close to the quality and fun factor of the many NPR presets in Real-DRAW V. From Watercolor to Oil painting, Illustration or engraving - nothing is too hard for NPR.

*SVG editor

As if this isnt enough, Real-DRAW can also be used as an SVG editor (Scaleable Vector Graphics supported by all XML enabled web-browsers) with import/export support of color fills, outlines and transparencies.

Mayura Draw is a vector-based drawing program. Unlike bitmap-based "paint" programs, vector-based drawing programs define each object that constitutes the drawing by its co-ordinates and not by pixels. This enables drawings to be modified easily. Vector based drawings also print at the highest resolution supported by the printer.

Using Mayura Draw you can create illustrations composed of graphical shapes such as rectangles, ellipses, polygons, bezier curves, images and text. Mayura Draw has powerful tools for editing and transforming graphical shapes. All shapes including images and text can be scaled, rotated, skewed and reflected. Mayura Draw supports editing bezier curves by manipulating handles.
