ARCHICAD 11 OFFSET TOOL ??

[Anonymous]

Hi

Can someone point me to the offset tool in archicad 11 ? I have tried to customise the drafting aids toolbar but an offset tool seems not to be available ?

Thanks

The Offset/Multiple Offset command can be made a keyboard shortcut and also appears in the control box.

as dwight says, you can customise a keyboard shortcut for them, but when it comes to placing the command on the primary UI (menus, etc..) they are considered a special type of command: "actions".

i believe you can put actions into your menu, but whether they'll work in all circumstances i don't know . . .

Listen to this "old dog", you can. You just have to remember which
blue arrow key is which , if you put more than one on your toolbar.

I have several Arrow Tool/Last Tool Toggle on my tool bar and use them
as visual separators. (2x24" monitors)

I have the key "O" set to toggle Offset/Multiple Offset as my shortcut
quicker and easier.
