Simple two dimensional drawing program
Can someone direct me to a Free Simple Two Dimensional Drawing Program -- one that works the way I think.
I want to draw a plan view to scale in order to experiment with different tile patterns.
I have looked at some free programs but they are way more sophisticated than I need and understand.
I want it simple like if I were putting it on a piece of paper.
Any ideas?

I would use poster board not a PC. One poster board size and shape to scale of the room the the other features each cut out of poster board to scale. Then you can just move them around.

I think in terms of a T square, triangle and scale rule. I looked at sketchup and could not even find where to set the scale.
Maybe I am not ready for the 21st century.
Norm201 I guess I don't understand quite what you describe.

Take a look at EZBlueprint.com
I don't use it enough to get good at it but it does seem to have a shorter learning curve. The only thing easier, less functional, is Paint.

I did a quick search and found these, haven't tried them:

Don't know if any of these will do what you want, but might be worth a look.

Thanks to all for the advice.
I upgraded to professional version of EXBlueprint.
They had a promotion.
It took a while to get the hang of it but It does what I want and more.

I did and tried a bunch. When I finally tried EZBlueprint it was such a relief to be able to make it work. Still a lot to learn as it has a lot of capabilities but has worked so far.
I will probably upgrade to the pro version but that will be after I get good at what i have.
