      Hi,

      when I choose "show axis"... it does not show...

      Axis is drawn with guide lines (construction lines). Do you have them visible ?
      Remember axis will only be visible if justification is "Center".

      draw a vertical line from top edge to bottom edge of the wall face. I hit enter for it to draw the double line. I get this.

      Oh yes, I noticed that here too. The part of line up the wall is always exactly half the width of the wall 😲
      As a matter of fact, this is normal: for the script to work in 3D, I had to compute the geometric plane on which the first two segments are drawn. Thus if you click only one segment, two points aren't enough to define the plane of the base. In this case the script considers that the plane is the red-green plane. And your points have the same projection on the red-green plane. So an error occurs. Hope I'm clear, hem,hem...
      But I'll try to fix that if I can.

        Hi!
        c=circle
        x=explode.
        Generally the letters are bad idea.
        Could it be just cntl click for for close?

            Hi,
            Everybody will agree now, I hope. I finally got the double-click detection to work, so a double-clic will close a shape.
            Another small enhancement: when you draw only one segment on an existing face, it takes the face as the base geometric plane (to solve Fletch's issue).
            Download it at the top of topic.
            Regards,

                  Well, that last fix broke it for me. 😞 I like doing one wall at a time, and it now lays them down flat instead of upright. I'm adding walls to an existing framework, so there are planes adjacent to where I'm adding the wall. PS: if I could undo one wall at a time, that would be great - if I make a mistake and undo, I lose all the work I've done with the tool so far. Thanks, CB.

                      Didier,

                      Thanks for the plugin, it's great! Any plans to incorporate a double line function for an arc type tool as well?

                            Double click for close is neat idea though I couldn't manage to get good result- it's a bit messy.

                                Now I understood: it closes wall in a newpoint not at the first one. I'm spoiled with CAD background )

                                    I'm afraid the wink about dashed line I didn't understand. What do you mean?

                                            Didier! You are wonderful... but you already knew this. Thank you for sharing this wonderful update.

                                            Since you love bug-hunting... here's what I get now... it does draw the wall but in the opposite direction from expected... I drew vertically on the 'inside' of this wall... I think it's picking the 'positive' direction of the green axis... perhaps - just a guess.
                                            my axis lines show up now. πŸ˜„

                                            So, this guy goes to the doctor...
                                            man: "Doc, my arm hurts when I move it like this."
                                            doctor: "Well, don't move it like that."
