Hello, sorry for the late response, I didn't get the email. No, I wouldn't like to draw a electrical schematic for creating a pcb like KiCad, Eagle .... I would like to draw pictures for my bachelor thesis. In draw it's easier to draw arrows, change color of paths and some other nice things. It would be great, when there is a possibility to draw complex symbols in draw but without the automatically set glue points on the border of the quadratic outline of the group, because with them it connects everytime to the wrong points when I set glue points in the group.

Have you looked at gEDA: http://www.geda-project.org/ What you want is gschem, the schematic capture application. I use it all the time for drawing schematics, and it includes a symbol library, however, your own symbols are easily created and used. You don't say what your OS is, but there is a windows version of gEDA available. HTH.
