Learning to use GardenCAD
We hope that you appreciate that while GardenCAD is easy to use and that professional landscape plans (drawings) can be produced in minutes, it is a sophisticated and fully fledged CAD tool. It has all the features and more of AutoCAD, the industry standard tool used by architects and engineers, but is much easier to use. Be that as it may, any efforts you make to learn to use its many features will be handsomely rewarded.
Your first port of call should be GardenCAD manual [reading onscreen saves paper]
