I’ve mentioned [before](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=588702) a program I’ve made called AlDraw. It’s used for making geometrical designs. [Here](https://picasaweb.google.com/113430375687951606100/Constructions?authuser=0&feat=directlink) are some examples of what I’ve done with it. I’ve also made a [wiki](http://aldraw.wikia.com/wiki/AlDraw_Wiki) about it.

Well, now I’ve made an [Android app](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=strinka.aldrawandroid) version of it.

So if you have a device that uses Android 3.0 or higher, give it a try. Tell me what you think.

I’d appreciate any feedback.

I just tried it on my Nexus 7 – pretty neat! I think the color selector could maybe use one of those 2D gradient palette things. Also, could maybe use a shortcut to place mark points at integral subdivisions of an arc; I was trying to divide the initial circle into five, and having a merry time of it. 😛

Also also, it seems to crash if you zoom really far out (around six full-screen pinches) while there are any infinite lines in the shape.
