Hi Joseph,

Try selecting a stright line, edit the nodes unitl it's exactly where
you want it then hit the 'd' key on the keyboard (or right click
'Draw'). It'll draw the straight line in the foreground colour.

It may be possible to write a toolbar macro to draw the line as soon as
you finish selecting it - but I would guess this would not allow such
precise drawing.

Regards,

Tony
