Hi

How do we find out about progress with a feature request? Specifically this one: "0003708: Add an Offset tool to the Sketcher"?

Tracker shows it was assigned and initial comments were made in 2018.

The last update in tracker was 2/6/21 noting other threads here about the topic.

It should be generally understood that "assignments" in the tracker, especially for features, are not quite the same as assignments from your boss or from your spouse.

The assignment of a feature means that the assignee plans to take a look. There is no commitment to ever finish.

In this case it seems the feature has been created though a macro as described in the link above.

The offset may or may not ever become a built-in feature of the core sketcher code.
