summary
A great number of graphic editors have very complicated desktop menu structures. Interface clarity and command structure can determine usefulness of the pro ram - its ability to aid design process and to create technical documentation. The paper examines connections between interface conception and conception of computer-aided design as a whole, and analyses evolution of computer - interface - architect communication process Subsequent detailed investigation of relations between three partakers in the mentioned process will be essential for creating an interactive, designer-friendly interface
