Sounds interesting, but don't most CAD people use a dual screen PC, and open the datasheet/diagram on one screen, and draw on the other?
I may be interested, can you describe what the program does in a little more detail? Does it open a windows box to allow switching from one to another? Is it a transparent window?
Dual screen pc?
I dunno about CAD people but for me ...
I may use two computers at times but generally keep ALT-TAB ing through programs - at least until the next scheduled M$ Windows crash stops me :evil:
When will Hyperion finish OS 4.0 ?
Seriously, it's nice to see someone trying to produce something useful, I'm game to try it .

its not a transparent window. if i could find code for that, that would be even better. its like any other regular windows window with the exception that when you go to click on your pcb editor it stays on top of all windows.
it supports multiple open documents so you can look at more than one datasheet at at time. it also includes a database of which i havent finished yet, so that you can do a search for a specific device. right now i am working on getting the copyright information from all the manufacturers. the database can be installed on a networked server or the computer that is operating the program and the database will include as many datasheets as i can get my hands on so that you dont have to go looking for them on the manufacturers web page.but you can also manually open any file. I will send out copies asap to anyone that requests one. also if you have a question or comment im me on any of the services listed, i might not be there at the moment but i will get back to you as soon as possible.
