Hi Guy,

While the ConstructionLine command is running you can create construction lines inside of a viewport by the usual method of pressing and holding the mouse down and dragging the mouse with the button still held down, but the difference from regular construction lines is that these ones will persist after that command exits.

Note though that if you just want to use a construction line as a helper during drawing you do not need to use this script to add one, you can create a construction line inside of any drawing command or anytime that MoI is asking you to pick a point input. To place a point you do a mouse click - if instead of clicking you hold down the mouse button and drag it away you will create a construction line at that time, the only thing the special script does is make lines that stick around for longer than the current command, normally construction lines are cleared when the current command exits.

Yup, I think it is the latest - it's actually not my script it was created by someone else.

I believe so, yes.
