Looks great...
I'll definitely need to give this one a go...
Thanks! -
This looks interesting, thx!
I guess you know of the typo now?

lengthI did not even find it when I checked 100 times ... Thanks!
I hope, this will be the "biggest" problem. -

Thanks!Hope you will find it useful! Please report any problem!

Very cool for lovers of precision!
Seems a new "indispensable"!PS Have you a special file for translation ?
I can make the French one! -
Thanks for the Nice worlds!

I can make the French one!There are no special file for translation, but better to wait at least until RC stage... some changes may will come. The "Instructor" file (index_1.html) is almost done, but the help file (help.html) will come later...

how i can snap to the face center?Hi Ahmed0007,
You can not really snap to it but you can get a guide line for intersecting or interfering.
As described in the chapter: "16 How to:Get special inference lines" in the help:While mowing your mouse over the faces, lines or vertices's you will see a small:
[Braun or yellow triangle with F]=[the Centroid of face]
The color is Yellow if the face have an inner loop, otherwise Braun
....
Just Hit CTRL button followed by F/R to get a normal of face/circle ...
Than you can use this guide line intersecting or interfering.Just in case: I heve been added a link of help content to the first post. This is exactly same as a build in help. Please download and read it if you have not done yet...

Dezmo, thanks for sharing!
Do you have plans to add most important ones:- midpoint between 2 points
- bisector between 2 edges
?
Edit: I looked at your first 2 gif animations. Well both ways take roughly the same amount of time to comlete the task. So why bother and memorize tons of new shortcuts?

Hi rv1974,
Yeah, I have some more ideas to implement, but can't promise any deadline... Randomly I can find time, but I can't feel any obligation to do it. Besides sometime I have to learn before I can do what I imagined... it takes time.
I'll definitely take your suggestion into consideration, however I have to think how to implement :
- I can not hover on 2 points simultaneously, so I need an other method to do it.
(I have some idea, but have to rethink more...
)
- Angle bisector guide line could be relatively easy to do...

Wich one You looked? In the help file or in my posts?
Have you been tried or just looked?
Did you read the help file?
Actually you are not obligated to memorize...
Lot's of sorcut can be done by the Settings an other you get a letter on screen (F, R, T) to remember more easy... -
First 2 gifs in this thread. Ironically Proline takes longer.
Frankly all is needed is a standardno-brainer line tool with one simple addition of degree '<' input.
Example:
Start line tool->Make first click ->Hoover over existing edge-> Enter say <30 (to get 30 degr direction)->
enter distance->Enter
Thats it. Simply replicating Autocad input + tracking.
Brevity is the soul of wit.
BTW Some of Proline shortcuts conflict with existing (of mine) ones. -
Looks Great! Thank you!

They are breaking the function of Proline or breaking the function of your associated function?
Thanks! -

Hi pbacot,
I'm happy if you like it...
I see you are from MAC. Since I do not have a chance to test on it, I'm curious how it is looks like on MAC, especially:
- the icons and the cursor pictures. Can you please post a screenshot!
- Are the sorcuts (Ctrl + "T" ; Ctrl + "F" ..ect.) working as described? Don't you get some problems or conflicts?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Curently ProLine can not evaulate onto which plain the 30 degrees line you want to put. Unfortonately AI has not been implemented yet here.
So until I find out evaoulation of the "best plain to draw" you have to use your brain and a protractor. Or simply use Autocad in 2D.BTW: you did not answered to my questions...
EDIT:
I beleve your "Simply replicating Autocad input + tracking." works only if you draw the line in 2D in Autocad. Don't you think? -

Thanks!For example, I use the End key for another (s4u divide) command. it just switches to s4u divide when hit. There were other collisions, I can't report exactly because I uninstalled
