> why "redo the weel"?

Quarantine free time :)  But it started as something else, just wanted 
to do a rapid modeler for structures, a support software for my other 
project. Check out my pretty face and what I want to accomplish here :

It's in C++. That's chinesse to me. And no fun. Why do we program 
anyway? Since it is all done!

Thank you. It started with Qt4 Paint , then Cairo , then Qt5 Paint , 
then OpenGL. Sadly its 23 year old v1.1 OpenGL; no Gambas fault, but 
Linux vs Nvidia figth. Anyway it's fast enogh for up to 200k entities. 
We are having same perfomance (in terms of number of entities/screen 
refreshing rate) as current commercial software like Briscad, VeriCAD, 
DraftSigth or others.
