Multi-line/wall tool

[sbrown]

I find myself drawing many walls and then having to offset them to get a cooridor or office. I think a multi-wall tool that would draw 2, 3 or more walls at a set spacing, from the center or wall edge would be a big time saver.

Err... can't you tab to select the chain of walls?

I think Scott wants to click a start point and end point, and this would create two or three (or more) parallel walls at a given distance apart.

Remember the AutoCAD Multiline command? Well, this would be the Multi-wall tool.

While we're at it, we still really need the ability to pick to place walls.

Davis understood what I was after.

Can't you draw the first wall, tab select each segment, or the entire wall, and then just use the offset command?
Once you set the offset value, offset also provides a quick way to produce a number of parallel walls.

You can but the walls become "separate" a Multi wall tool could keep these as one entity like a multi line. and you could adjust the spacing etc between the walls in its settings (I think thats what you mean?) - I can see that being a very useful tool, gets a strong vote from me. the ends would have to be able to move to different locations though I think, unlike the multiline tool.
