Issue - while this looks fine in principle, zooming in shows broken lines at edges. This uses Roberto Log macro, File:Iso view.FCMacro to extract the iso views, scale 8. Also, line width in the macro was 0.3 - changing to 0.1 does not change anything.

Experience so far is that the interface is very frustrating. Key difficulty is how to activate different functions. Many times they are blanked out. Bug report: drawing buttons in workbenches deactivate, and the only way to get them to activate is to switch out of a workbench and get back into it. Managed to draw tubes, rotate, and copy them - but the instructions on the FreeCAD Wiki do not appear to do the things they say should happen. Aligning corners is the next frontier, and copying them reliably. Bug report: need to switch between navigation styles within a drawing to activate certain features.
