Punch- Professional Home Design Suite Description:
Punch! Professional Home Design Suite review: 5 stars (WARNING - This seller has FALSE information!) - The description on this AMAZON.com post says that the software is Mac compatible -- I work for Punch! Software and most assuredly can tell you that it is NOT compatible with Mac. 2 stars (Not ready for prime-time) - Very, very limited. Decides arbitrarily to link walls together so that an interior wall becomes an exterior wall, and changing the interior back changes all the walls in the group. No way to break a wall once you've put a window or door in it unless you first remove the window or door. Selection of textures is very, very limited and there is no documented way to import more. Selection of objects the same--the 3d designer does allow new objects to be defined but compared to any kind of real 3-d CAD program, including the freeware version of Intellicad (no longer available alas), it's horribly weak, and no way to import from a real CAD program unless maybe you spring for one of the more expensive versions. No doorknobs. No way to specify where lights are located, at least none that I can find--there are lamp objects but they don't provide light, they just sit there.It's a cheap program that acts like a cheap program. 1 stars (Not what I expected) - This program is difficult to understand. It is not easy to use. If you make a mistake it is not easy to correct it. I did not like it at all and am taking it back to Office Depot. I should have read other reviews before I got it.
