          No. Currently there's no option for drawing double lines nor for Offset. Both could be useful tools so perhaps you could make a feature request in the LayOut Wishes forum.

          In the meantime, maybe you could draw the lines in SketchUp, import them as a viewport, render in Vector and explode the viewport. It's a few steps but it could do the job.

            Now i draw the offset line using grid snap at defined distance around the path desired.

            Thanks

              Mate I'd turn gay for one of the developers if they would introduce an offset tool in LayOut, particularly handy when it comes to curves!

                  Hmmm? You're right if all my wishes come true I'll be busy!

                  I retract my last post!
