For help on the process, see Wikipedia:How to draw a diagram with Inkscape. This tutorial aims to instruct a beginner on the basic principles of vector graphics using Microsoft Word (Office 97 or later). The basic principles are the same in other drawing programs such as CorelDraw or the free and open source OpenOffice.org.
An ellipsograph is a mechanism that generates the shape of an ellipse. One common form of ellipsograph is known as the trammel of Archimedes . [ 1 ] It consists of two shuttles which are confined to perpendicular channels or rails and a rod which is attached to the shuttles by pivots at adjustable positions along the rod.
If the center and the semi axis of an ellipse are determined the ellipse can be drawn using an ellipsograph or by hand (see ellipse). Rytz’s construction is a classical construction of Euclidean geometry, in which only compass and ruler are allowed as aids. The design is named after its inventor David Rytz of Brugg (1801–1868).

LibreOffice Draw can be used to create complicated figures using shape tools, straight and curved tools, polygon tools, among other features.
In isometric projection, the most commonly used form of axonometric projection in engineering drawing, [4] the direction of viewing is such that the three axes of space appear equally foreshortened, and there is a common angle of 120° between them. As the distortion caused by foreshortening is uniform, the proportionality between lengths is ...
diagrams.net (previously draw.io [2] [3]) is a cross-platform graph drawing software application developed in HTML5 and JavaScript. [4] Its interface can be used to create diagrams such as flowcharts , wireframes , UML diagrams, organizational charts , and network diagrams .
