FX Draw is a mathematically aware drawing surface that understands what it is that you are trying to produce and provides you with tools specifically designed to make your job easier. No matter what you need to draw, FX Draw is likely to have a tool devoted to the task. FX Draw is an essential tool for any mathematics teacher's toolbox.

Primarily developed for mathematical teachers, FX Draw is a simple-to-use program which allows you to draw geometrical shapes for classroom lessons or presentations. It can be handled even by users with limited experience in graphic editing tools.

The interface of the application may appear complicated at a first glance, but FX Draw is actually quite easy to deal with.

The tool allows you to draw lines, circles, rectangles, labeled points, freehand, polygons, ellipses from axis and three-point arcs. But you may also mark angles, add shades to regions, display function graphs or select one of the preset figures from the gallery.

Feature List
Geometric Diagrams
Inbuilt geometry system that understands tangents, perpendiculars, parallel lines, common tangents, angle bisectors and equal lengths lines. Makes drawing geometric diagrams intuitive.
Multiple tools to draw lines including end points, mid points, rise/run and length/angle.
Over twenty arrow types for lines including parallel line marks and circles.
Multiple tools to draw circles including centre/point on circumference, diameter, circle defined by three points and circle inscribed in square.
Compass like drawing tools. Can be used to simulate geometric constructions.
Quickly mark and annotate angles with a selection of ten different mark types.
Six specialized triangle drawing tools that allow you to quickly draw any triangle.
Triangles understand in-centres, circum-centres, centroids and orthocentres.
Seven specialized quadrilateral drawing tools that allow you to quickly draw rectangles, kites, parallelograms, rhombuses and trapeziums.
Highly efficient point-marking tool to mark and annotate important points on your geometric diagram.
Option to automatically mark and annotate important points when drawing geometric diagrams.
Multiple arc and ellipse tools that allow you to construct exactly the arc/ellipse you need.
Regular polygon tools that allow you to draw squares to regular 30000-gons.
Drawing Tools
180 and 360 degree protractors that can be added to any diagram
A ruler tool that allows you to show accurate measurements. The ruler can be totally customised including negative values.
Bitmaps, PNG and JPEG files can be pasted into FX Draw. This allows you to use FX Draw's specialized mathematical tools to annotate real situations.
Draw Bezier curves and smoothed lines.
Advanced dynamic flood fill tool.
Free rotation and reflection of objects.
Text/Equation Entry
FX Draw includes our FX Autoquate technology which allows you to easily mix equations and normal text. The system automatically detects which bits need to be formatted as equations.
FX Draw includes our full FX Equation product which makes equation entry as quick as typing.

Function Graphs
FX Draw includes our full FX Graph graphing tool which allows you to quickly create and annotate any graph.
Quick, visual function entry system that allows you to simply type the function but shows you exactly how it is interpreting your entry.
Graph Cartesian functions, inverse functions, polar functions, parametric functions, implicitly defined functions, points, vectors, Argand diagrams, slope fields, piecewise defined functions, domains, inequations and feasible regions.
Show families of curves, demonstrate transformational graphing and create animations.

Statistical Graphs
FX Draw includes our full FX Stat graphing tool which allows you to quickly create statistical data and graphs.
Create data sets which fit fifteen different probability functions, including time-series data and bivariate data. The data generators allow you to quickly create questions.
Automatically calculate summary statistics for data sets.
Graph raw data, grouped data and frequency tables.
Draw column graphs, bar graphs, pie graphs, box and whisker plots, cumulative frequency graphs, dot plots, stem and leaf diagrams, line graphs, frequency polygons, histograms, cumulative histograms, back-to-back histograms, divided bar graphs, scatterplots, residuals graphs, link graphs and triangle graphs.
