I've never used any cad software before but I've been looking into a bunch of them and I think I am going to try to learn Plasticity. Does anyone use this software that may be able to answer a couple of newbie questions?

When I start the program or start a new project it does not start with a blank slate. There is always a cube in the workspace. This cube is over 62 thousand inches in size. Pretty useless for someone with a 10 x 10 inch workspace. There is nowhere in the program to set the size of the workspace that I can find. There is a place to set up the grid but it seems there is no adjustment to the actual work area. If I scale this box down to 10 in x 10 inches on my screen it is just a dot.

I have changed over to that now. Better tutorials online and it is going very well.
