DRAW: Open source Ajax drawing tool
Fancy creating drawing on the web that can be saved as jpg/png/svg/pdf in addition to an editable format? Cumulate Labs has created an open source drawing tool called DRAW that lets you do the work online, and currently supports IE and Firefox.
Check out a demo to see the rich application.

Very nice tool! Hopefully, they adjust the design so that it looks alot better. Now it just looks like they threw all together without thinking much about the appearance of the tool.
Still very cool!
Doesn’t appear to work for me. Just gives me javascript errors: c has no properties. Firefox 1.5
[…] DRAW (Visto en Ajaxian) […]
Wow thats really cool. Few bugs in Opera but it seams to work ok.
I can’t add any text :(
Interesting, I’m biased but I still prefer Gliffy though. Sometimes Flash is just that much more powerful than Ajax *duck*.

Bart, sorry to hear that, could you tell us what operating system/browser you are using. We currently support only IE 6+ and firefox 1.5+.
Can you also tell us what happens when you double click on a shape (to set text).
thanks!

Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should… Try rotating an object then scaling one of the sides. Very weird. Adding text isn’t very intuitive!
Hi. I’m only seeing left half of the shape pallete in Firefox 1.5.0.7 and
when my bookmarks open no shape pallete at all. Looks like potential to be a great tool.

Hi,
I got a javascript error on IE 7:
Line: 261
Char: 1
Error: ‘c’ is null or not an object
Code: 0
URL: http://www.cumulatelabs/draw/draw.html
I forgot to say: the error happened when I selected Rectangle shape
The server is running really slow, we’ve had a very busy weekend (>50,000) hits. WRT, sizing bug for rotated shapes. This is a known issue and will be addressed in future releases. We will also be adding a text tool in the next release.
Wow. Just wow.
Google, ready your checkbooks!

Very nice, nice work. Useful tool that is easy to use.
This is a great program that I hope the expand upon and make available to everyone. Being able to add images in addition to text as well as having Rich Text so you can have hyperlinks would be great also.

Cumulate Draw: Neat JavaScript-based drawing/flowchart tool… background info here. I’m in Firefox 1.5 and had some of the support issues reported by others, but it’s an impressive piece of scripting, check it out. Interesting bit on saving drawing …
Cool.. Thanks..
Wow …. Cooooooooooooooooooooooooool !!!
This is freaking cool. First one that actually worked and no bugs so far. The ZOHO one was soooo buggy in FF 2.0.
wow, this is awsome …
have you seen anything like it made using flash ?
Nince.
Need geometry snapping, DXF/DWG export, and dimensioning function.
This is very neat indeed. Works fine for me. Does the tool support server side functionality, i.e. can it be used as a capture tool if you want users to send you sketches (say I want to invite people to submit cartoons or circuit diagrams for a contest on my website)? Something like a button to “submit” that initiates a PHP script that saves the SVG in a MySQL database.

Venkat,
cumulate draw always sends the data to the server when you hit save for image processing. You can pick up this data and put this into a database. Please see the source section of the website to download the source.

I dont know nothing about ajax
good stuff…
1. when doing flowcharts, the lines don’t really seem to “connect” to the boxes, so that if you want to move the box, the line will stay connected to it.
2. “nested diagrams” – You should be able to start out with a high level flow chart. double-clicking or something like that on a box should take you to a more detailed diagram with a flow chart detailing the activities of that box….you should be able to go back to the more general diagram as well.
3. Would be nice to save as actual html pages with an area on the page that lists each box and allowed you to turn it into a hyperlink. Myabe you could still just save it as a jpg wrapped in an html page that has all the hotspots figured out for you…Trying to think of a good way to have it ready to integrate with bug tracking and wiki programs like trac :-)
Is it possible to make some interpretaiion out of the diagram , I draw with this tool?
Say If I draw a tree, can I have a representation in xml / json etc..
The tool looks wonderful though.. :-)
It is very nice indeed a great effort and it works great in firefox. Is there a way for me to access the source? If yes, please state how.
Best regards,
Majid
well, very nice. Can you please give me source code. thanks.
