Offset select edges

Operating system used: Windows 22H2

When offsetting edges you can either offset one of all, I can't find a way to offset a few edges from a selection. There's no way to actually select an edge. I am attempting this in the Profile Manager:

Such a simple operation should be obvious to perform. I am new to Archicad (coming from poly modeling applications mostly) and I am shocked at how difficult and non-intuitive it is to perform basic geometric operations. 😬

Hi @xissburg 

 

Just click on the edge and pet palette should pop up for you to chose the offset edge tool.

Anyway, you can check if pet palette is hidden somewhere. Also take a look at dialog boxes and palettes setting from Work Environment. Maybe Follow Cursor option for your Pet Palette movement could get the job done.
