The new tool "Paste along entity" is very useful! But I work mostly in mechanical engineering and would like to see more options to determine where it has to start with the first insert item.
Screenshot:
1. That is how it works right now - no chance to get it started on both ends of an line.
2. If I need to have my items also on the ends I have to use additional the normal "Paste" function.
3. If I could tell the "Paste along entity" that there is a start and end "Base" dimension then I'm a big step further. ;-)
I could tell the tool that it has to start at "0" or at "25" and the rest is just regarding the calculation. Correct?
However - you need many times in mechanical engineering etc. a hole pattern which will start at:
0,25,25,25,25,25,25,25,25,0
or
25, 123.5, 123.5, 123.5, 123.5, 123.5, 25
It would be very nice to have this also in combination with the "Paste along entity" tool ;-)
