Have you tried Target3001? or Design Spark? both free and both are very easy to master, Design Spark has no limitations, and both have pretty comprehensive libraries, new symbols and footprints in Target3001 is a doddle! and there is of course Eagle also with a good library of parts. No point in re-inventing the wheel!
