    We know how to do it with AccuDraw and also the old mdl Active Angle Assistant we have used before. (working with Microstation from version 3.2 til now) only we think MicroStation works faster to use Parallel Snap on more functies.

    Get the Active Angle Assistant from the Ask Inga Wiki area. It's a MVBA project (MicroStation VBA) that can be loaded and run, but also studied to learn about programming.
