Middle of lines

Hello,

I was wondering how can I make Draftsight show up the middle of lines and the lines that make up a polygon.
In order to move a side of a rectangle now I have to move 2 points, just dragging the middle = entire line like in autocad would be a lot more convenient.

Sincerely

scheven

I'm also wondering how I can reshape hatches. It seems that clicking associative or non associative doesn't make any difference, no handles show up.
 
Set your esnaps to "midpoint" or whatever it says.
 
To move a polyline - Click Ortho, hold down the Shift key and select the grips on the ends of the line (they'll change to red), release the Shift key and grab one of the grips to move to another location.
