An improved user interface for an interactive graphics figure illustrator

This study discusses briefly the history of technical figure illustration in the Computer Science Department of the Naval Postgraduate School. The single system experiencing the most usage is the fully automated interactive graphics figure illustrator--OZDRAW. During its short and active life, the need for perfective maintenance to include generalized documentation has been recognized. The result is a technical graphics figure illustrator with an improved user interface titled NPSDRAW and supporting documentation.
