      Stretch by Area is great, but in my workflow i prefer SU's Move and for openings/closets/kitchen design Box Stretch to Target, on FredoScale, by Fredo. It aligns with axis automatically and you have a modifier for double plane stretching. It beats DC component windows by a mile!

      I knew about this Fredo tool but never used it in workflow. I have to try it. Thanks for the info.

        @Srx - is this what you are referring to in your original post? Do you use solids for modelling the original shapes? If 2x yes, this might be a simple plugin I think.

        Ok, I also thought this way, even though I do not use solid tools. Still, dedicated plugin would mean one instead of 6 steps (selecting outline is 0 step in your example). Thank you for good suggestion and illustration.

          Edit: or not so simple as I thought. There is no easy offset method for loops / contours in the API. Detecting the upper boundary loop is easy but you would then have to make you own offset algorithm...
