How to thicken a thin line in both directions?

[siegert.martin]

Hi,

I am looking for an option to thicken a thin line in both directions (from the middle). The result should then be a rectangle with two sides parallel to the initially painted line and two lines that close this parallel lines. In AS 2.1 there was an option "Width" --> from middle --> do not fill (or similar, I only have the german version).

Does this or a similar option exist in AS 10?

Thanks for your support.

Martin

Tht can be done with Polylines from the editbar.
