A small wish: in the Offset menu, down below the New Distance button in the appropriate location, it would be great to have X/2 and 2X options. This would let you offset something by half (or twice) the currently selected distance.

This would work nicely with my wish, posted earlier today at viewtopic.php?f=10&t=13766, for the ability to add a Z setting. This would be very helpful for grading contour lines, etc.

Si!

Dave is going to have his hands full when he returns from vacation. He should be very rested and ready to go.

I trust the weather was good and the cocktails were strong.

....and you got to chill out

Done for the first v16 update.

Well in all honesty, I was constantly searching for an open WiFi to check emails and this Forum. I suppose a vacation is necessary for some folks, but I am very happy to be back doing what I truly enjoy. It was 5 years since my previous vacation and I trust it will be at least that long until the next. What is that saying that if you enjoy what you do, it doesn't seem like work? For me, it's certainly true. I suppose that I will succumb to family pressure to vacation once again, but I hope it's no time soon.

Hi Dave,

Well....you sound like me! ... at least you got out of the office...sort of

You can drag the programmer away from writing code, but you'll never stop the coding in his/her head.

I think it's "If you enjoy what you do, you'll never work a day in your life!"

Nothing beats using DataCAD in the mobile office at the lake house that we rent for the month of July. I get up early and get a few hours of work in before the family activities start. The best part is that I don't have to wear long pants or shoes.
