True Fredo. But the very strange thing is that i did not notice the flickering (in "b" version i mean) until i went back from "c" to "b" version.

Fredo, i have upgraded your amazing free scale tool. I have noticed a strange behaviour. When you use, for example, the scale tool the model has a sort of instantaneous jump and then return to his proper size. Is that normal? Thanks.

Thanks Fredo for this great plugin!

Exactly that, Chris. I had in mind something like “vertical lines by relative elevation” from a new 0,0 plane. I know that I can make a line by typing the length or by using “line by hight”, but if you have many lines to draw, all with different length, but with the same elevation from a new 0,0 plane that would be useful.

I meant that when I click on a surface that is, for example, at + 100 cm over the 0,0 original plane, and i type 200 cm for that line, the line will be long 100cm and not 200 cm, because the reference is the original plan and not the surface that I clicked on.

Hi Chris, hi all. I’m new to this forum so be patient with me and with my english…
Thanks for this nice plugin. I have only a little question for you Chris.
I’ve noticed that the “vertical lines by elevation” command only works with the original 0,0 location as reference. It be possible to add an option that calculate the elevation from a surface that you click on?
I mean select “vertical line by elevation”, input the elevation and then click on a surface. The length of the line is now calculated from that surface (and not from the original 0,0 location) which becomes the new reference for the elevation of the other lines.
That would be very useful, for example, when you have to put a series of pillars of a bridge on a hilly terrain.
Thanks again.
