Is there feature in LibreCAD to make offset like this? Or should I make a feature request?

With current offset feature i must lenghten and trim entities after offset.

What I need is feature I select multiple entities, apply offset for them and offset like on screen is created.
I hope that my screen shows good functionality I need.

FreeCAD seems to have this feature. http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/free-cad/index.php?title=Draft_Offset I haven't tested it hovewer it seems to be ok. I will test and report here whether it works or not.

I've just noticed that for polyline this feature work as I want. But I want to do it for shapes not treated as polyline also.
