Is it just me or does the Ortho Mode just not work as it should? I've got an existing DWG that I need to amend and I'm trying to use stretch a few elements vertically with ortho mode on and whenever I snap to the element that should define the extent of the stretch operation, the elements move horizontal as well which they should not. The only way I have been able to keep the elements move only vertically is to use object snap tracking which is not exactly desirable. You can see the behaviour here.
In MicroStation there is a similar feature on the accudraw which does completely restrict the direction of travel for any operation regardless of where the end stretch point is located and I was wonder if that is possible in AutoCAD?
