Simple Dialog to Duplicate objects one at a time in a selected direction. Dialog stays open after each duplication so you can change distance between copies easily
Image below shows most convenient usage. Converting an existing paper plan to VW file.
Lately I've been using the following technique to create addition plans from existing paper plans.
Take a digital picture of the plan page, import it into VW and scale the picture to match VW scale.
Use DupDistance to create dimension layout guides by copying a guide line and entering each spacing between copies.
Click a Radio Button to set the duplicate direction.
Dialog will "remember" last direction and distance entry. Once you have all the layout lines set its not too difficult to re-create the walls and rest of plan.
You have the underlying photo to guide you.
