Retaining walls

[Max Cutts]

Is there any way we can offset the strip footings for retaining walls. In New Zealand, more often than not, we have approx. 200mm on one side & maybe 600 to 2000mm on the other.
In the plan view, as it shows, the outline of the footing is roughly equal each side & I change the footing layer then turn it off & draw a new outline. Any comments?

I don't know how to do it but I think that being able to do it would be a good feature. There are times when footings for basement walls should be offset as well. It can be done by replacing the footing with a slab shaped like a footing, but I'd like it better if the footing could be offset as you suggest.
