We really need a vector editor that has some of the features of Flash's UI. I haven't seen them in other programs.


They were called Fireworks and Freehand. Sadly, they didn't survive Adobe's acquisition of Macromedia.


Serif's Affinity Designer was consciously modeled on Freehand, and Quasado became GraviT which likewise was inspired by Freehand.


I am working on another SVG editor called Hyvector ( https://hyvector.com ). It is an SVG editor, but I am trying to hide the strange quirks of SVG from the user.


I'm working on Boxy SVG which combines vector drawing and animation tools: https://boxy-svg.com


Wick Editor implements some aspects of the vector drawing from Flash:
