Is there a way to build a tool that does offsets of polygons, lines, polylines, etc.? Not the multiply tool but take a square, for example, and offset/scale it smaller/larger by a specified distance.
This is really important and basic. It's just a copy and modify command. Not difficult to program.
There's a multiply tool in the right-click menu but I agree that an offset tool would be nice. Offset is different than just "Pattern"
There isn't but you can do something with custom line styles to produce profile lines to work to……
An offset tool or multiply parallel to a line/polyline would be so useful. Currently I have to align measurements to the line/polyline or do some trig calculations to multiply in the directions available in that tool.
The Multiply tool has been amazing so far. I'd love to see that expanded upon to allow more options when offsetting things. It's fairly cumbersome to use at the moment, but looks like it could be very powerful eventually.
There is now an offset tool in the Bluebeam Max Beta - Hoping that means it coming to regular revu too?

This new tool is really good!
