Millón de gracias -
And now if someone would make a user interface for this with all the needed rubies, we have the 'architectural plugin' we talked about.
(maybe with some extra stuff included?)It would take one of the ruby heroes to make a GUI for it....

Wow. Will definitely have to try this tonight - this could save me a lot of time!

I noticed that the cursor has the axes following it, how do I switch this on?
-
On Windows OS it is window (menu) > Preferences > Drawing > Miscalleanous > Display crosshair. (funny, under "miscalleanous" one would expect more than one item...)
Mac should have something similar in this case I guess...
