Make Parallel

Make Parallel command added, takes the target object and changes it's angle to match that of the source object.

Useful when working on site plans and also on elevation drawings when trying to match a roof pitch.

Modify

The command is a combination of adjust and move>.

If you are near an adjust point we will adjust the entity, otherwise we will move the entity.
