Roofline layout

[Gilrock]

Yeah we know that.  My point is you draw the line and then you rotate it to make it vertical.  If you drag to the left to rotate then the right end it the top and if you drag it to the right to rotate the left end is the top.  So technically you still gotta be somewhat smart to know if the way you lay it out matches how you plan to wire it in the yard.  Us adding code to draw an arrow would help nothing at all.

Yep, you can't make something idiot proof. There's always a bigger idiot.

Maybe I am just thinking ahead too far.  Dan was talking in the web meeting last night about being able to click two points to draw a single line model.  Would be very easy to get those flipped around because those would look the same drawn draw top to bottom or bottom to top, so I thought pointing out the beginning and ending might be useful, but maybe not.  With the new render styles, that may not matter anyway.

 What if you guys can somehow mark the start of the first node which would the verify what direction the string is set up for. You could select the model and the first node would be highlighted (lets say red) and when done adjusting it, the first node marking goes away until you click on the string again I can see how that would help in most models at times Then maybe put ( model string orientation) or something like that above - top left, top right, botton left ect .so user would know that it can be used for all models. I thought it was just used on martixes and trees , and didnt think to use if for other models. Just a couple of ideas not knowing how hard it would be to incorporate into the program or if its even possible. Then again if it is even feasable. I got to a point that I took on too much last year and things started to get confusing so if there was a basic marking it could have saved a whole lot of headaches.

dan made two pint single lines, it starts with the green box and ends with the blue box. when you come back later, it does remember where the starting (GREEN) and end point (BLUE) are.
