Tool Extend >> Double Extend >> Un-select initial extend?

View Count: 376

Dear Support

Please would you help with the following.

There is an option to "Extend Drawing" tool on the right click menu and selecting it again then double extends (both directions).

In addition, there is an option to un-select the Double Extend in the tool properties but I can't seem to remove the initial extend selection, which would take me back to the original drawing prior to me selecting extend-drawing in the first instance.

Any thoughts?

Many thanks

What is the tool for which you are seeing this behavior?

Hi John

Here are 2 examples. The Line and Ray tool solve the issue with 2 x Ext check-boxes in the Tools Properties.


Select Rectangle tool >> Draw Rectangle.
Select Rectangle >> Rt-Click >> Extend Rectangle (Extends right)
Select Rectangle Again >> Rt-Click >> Extend Rectangle (Double Extends Rectangle)

Select Drawing Properties >> Double Extend un-check (removes Double Extend)
.. but there doesn't seem to be a option/ability to remove the first Extend to the Right.


Select Line tool >> Draw Line.
Select Line >> Rt-Click >> Extend Line (Extends right )
Select Line Again >> Rt-Click >> Extend Line (Extends Left)

Select Drawing Properties >> Allows you un-check either or both extensions. Same for the Ray Tool.


It's often my error but I have looked at all options that seem logical to me.

Many thanks and apologies if I've missed something obvious.

We do see the inconsistency you are referring to.

We have set this as a Feature Request. Just keep in mind that we can not say when we will be able to get to any particular feature.
