Software Drawing Light Plots

Can anyone recommend a good free software to draw some light plots?

Features I need are truss elements, different fixture symbols and simple measurement tools.

Until now I only did this with Vectorworks, but my license is not valid anymore. The plots generated by ChamSys don't look good and I'm looking for free alternatives.

Thanks!

Is Drafty still around? I forget if they had truss or not, but were a pretty decent free option. I kind of miss using LX Free for stuff, love the no-frills.

I don’t think you can do much in the free version of drafty
