Feature requests

When searching this forum for "Align" there is 262 votes across various request for the same thing. I wonder if these request should be merged and there fore more importance given to the request for an Align tool like in illustrator. Depending on the view you are orientated in to be able to align the outer edges or centre points of any object, point, line, etc. equally evenly distribute or even spacing between objects (including lines).

A simple align/distribute tool like Adobe Illustrator. Useful even if only available in front, side, top views. Should ideally work with objects, sketch elements and even spline control points. My daily cad tool has this and it’s incredibly useful.

We need a command to select CV edgeloops , double clicking with LMB close to a CV can select the "edgeloop" and and Shift + double click with LMB can add to the edgeloop selection set. Ctrl + LMB double can remove an edgeloop from the selection set.

I often want to create a linear or rectangular array symmetrically from a center point. It would be handy to have a mode that does this.

Matching the curvature of an existing curve or surface to another curve, edge or surface. For reference: http://docs.mcneel.com/rhino/5/help/en-us/commands/match.htm http://docs.mcneel.com/rhino/5/help/en-us/commands/matchsrf.htm

Being able to create and add plugins. For example, making threads are a bit hard, so being able to create a plugin that generate them easily with just a couple of variables would be amazing.

When creating a new line, you can 'Tab' select the angle and length options and also the angle between the first and second line in sequence. But the 'Dimension' tool doesn't work on lines to give us back these options. If we could select a line and hit '=' to bring up the 'Dimension' tool then enter a length to resize from its center, or additionally select an end CV as an anchor and either length or angle value would be from that point. Additionally if you selected two joined lines you could enter a value for the angle between. This may need my previous post 'Selectable lines/curves that are joined' in order to work.

Currently when you use the 'Measure tool' you 'left click' and drag, which gives you the angle and point to point values and when you 'click' again it switches to give you height, or width values that you can drag out away as needed and set with 'left click', or if you 'right click' instead you get the point to point value, which can be hard to read if over other things in the scene, and can't be dragged out. It would be nice if on the second 'click' you could use 'Tab' to cycle through point to point and angle values as well, and have all options be draggable and set with left click. Additionally if when the angle option is selected you could 'Shift' select an additional line to measure between the two. This may need my previous post on 'Selectable lines/curves that are joined' in order to work.

When there are multiple objects located in one point: construction cuvre, surface edge, curve ends it is quite inconvinient to to manualy hide evrything and then select. It would be great to have some sort of mini window in which we can select.
