I was wondering if there exists a piece of software that allows you to design decks. Has anyone heard of one such piece of software or even own one?
Thanks kindly

I realize this posting is several months old but I just designed a deck using free CAD software called CAD X11 FRE. Yes I said free. Not a demo, no time limit.. FREE!
Their website is http://www.graytechsoftware.com/products/cadx11/
The learning curve is fairly steep but I was able to design the entire deck, board-by-board and be able to get a dimension on any item I wanted. It's pretty powerful but the only set-back is an unfinished help file and no other documentation to assist. But again, it's free!
