I think this will be improved for version 2.0 but you could as a
'workaround' for now:
1.Create e.g polygon.
2.From polyline tools > create polyline from segments > select and 'double'
click on a line to produce a closed polyline!
3.Then use the polyline equidistant tool.
As I say this will I`m sure be improved.
