Improve Shorten command

Improve Shorten command

I would like to be able to "shorten" multiple items in at a time like "shorten at UCS" does. If I have a whole line of beams that need to be shortened/lengthened,  it would be very fast to setup the first value, say 1 1/2", then just select or window in a group of beams. You can do this with many additional steps with "shorten at UCS", but this would be faster.

there's the advance trim command in the toolpalette, which allows you to shorten beams for example by a line or system line ...

@Sebastian_Eiche , Thank-you, I realize that and use that command often. In the case where the system line needs to remain where it is for dimensioning purposes, and the beam length needs to change, a multiple shorten/lengthen is what I'm after.

Hi,

 

This is needed very often,

 

below is another idea to have the coordinates of end points manipulated, when a value is changed, system end to move.

Item No.4 from my short wish list,  added to the initial idea:

It is amazing how such an important tool is overlooked over the years.
