Automatically set span direction

Automatically set span direction

Very often the structural span of a floor is not relevant, and more often than not the function is not used by the designer at all (assertion). So for my own part, it really grinds my gears if i click finish sketch and i get the error message: structural span direction is not defined, and my workflow is stopped.

 

so my Idea is to let the software automatically set a span direction if one is not already chosen.

Revit does this currently. If you sketch a floor the first line drawn will be used as the span direction. If you draw using one of the shapes then it will use one of the lines close to the second mouse click.
