Hi Michael-
Love the new beta 4 version!!!!
As a architect, I wish there was a line tool that could be thickened to create walls or have a separate tool box for architects and include tools for floor slab, windows, doors, etc.
Just a thought.

Hi FED, I'm glad you are liking it!

Currently you can use the Construct > Offset command to thicken a line. In the future I do want to experiment with having different kinds of draw modes that could apply stuff like that automatically to the current active draw command but I won't be able to do that until some time after v4.

There is also the "cap ends" and the "Both sides" options in offset that's really useful.
