Bob - I hope you're on the Subscription because Dave NAILED it with this little 5-minute ditty of his!! I think once everyone tries it they'll love what he did!!!

Now ... are your drag and drop guides similar to the way that SketchUp works with their inferred construction lines/extensions? That would be my next wish.

Alan - Been offline for a while. The drag and drop is exactly like Sketchup's guides (tape measure tool). It would be a perfect companion to inferencing...

If this feature is in version 16 I don't see it. Perhaps Im not looking in the right place?

That might depend upon which feature you are referring to.

You can enable it on the Interface tab of the Preferences dialog:

Note: You must enable either the Dynamic Snapping Indicator or Hint for this to work.

Yeah, it will only show up in the Subscription version.
