Indeed.

Probably best to send an email to info@bullsystems.com just so we don't forget.

Yep, that works.  Next question - for single lines when the cursor is positioned over the line, various stats are shown such as angle and slope of the line.  This does not happen with the parallel lines.............something for the wish list perhaps?

On my copy of BullCharts, the following works:
  1. Create a chart
  2. Draw parallel lines
  3. Double-click on the lines to bring up the Properties dialog
  4. On the Style tab, tick "Extend right" and "Extend left"
  5. Click the Defaults button in the lower-left
  6. Make sure "Save these settings as my defaults" is selected
  7. Click the "Advanced" button just to double-check the settings you're about to save - "Extend right" and "Extend left" should both have "Yes" in the "Current" column.
  8. Click OK on the Defaults dialog
  9. Click OK on the Properties dialog
  10. Select the Parallel Lines tool again, draw some more lines and verify that they do, in fact, extend to the left and right.

Hi all

When drawing parallel lines they are by default of fixed length.  I know that once drawn the parameters may be modified so that both lines are infinite length, but I would like to be able to draw parallel lines that are by default infinite length.

Anybody know how to do this?
