Which program should I use to draw simple 2-D Free Body Diagrams?
I have been looking around for literally 3 days through all the programs associated with Creo and I was surprised to find out that although most of them have powerful 3d capabilities, none of them was suitable to use to draw very simple 2-D free body diagrams.
I only need to draw diagrams and don't care that much about any computation or analysis that the program can perform. Do you know what program should I use?
and which modes/tools in that program are the ones used for 2-D diagrams?
PS: I know that creo parametric has the sketch mode but I didn't find that it was easy since that i couldn't find how to add force arrows. I also tried using creo sketch and it was really hard to dimension the diagram and to add forces/ loads to it.
Attached: Pictures that contains the kinds of diagrams I am interested in drawing.



Disclaimer:I didn't draw and I don't own the copyrights of these pictures. These are just selected pictures form a google image search to demonstrate what kind of diagrams I am talking about.
Thank you !
