    Direct entry for the length of walls is something that I have been requesting for a while now.
    BUT, it is not the be all and end all for accurately locating walls due to the fact that most walls are mulyilayered and have considerable thickness.
    Where would the keyboard distance entry work from when, say, drawing walls at 90° to each other. Inside of wall, centre of wall, outside of wall? And surely you would get differences if you have an internal or an external corner.
    I still believe that direct entry keyboard distance is the way to go, even if it means a little fine tuning with the dimension tools after.

    Direct entry keyboard distance really shines with the cad tools, and should be introduced for cad, if nothing else.
