[ GiDlist ] improvement gid

Hello,

I suggest you these improvements for Gid.
1 - When there is many conditions in a problem, there is'nt an all list. In complex models, it's nescessary to see conditions one by one. Is it possible to add option entities/all_conditions in the data/conditions menu? the result will be resemble to that (ex:rambshell):
Lines_constraints
E 1 - r1 1 1 1 1 1 1 N-mm 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0
E 2 - r1 1 1 1 1 1 1 N-mm 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0
E 3 - r1 1 1 1 1 1 1 N-mm 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0
E 4 - r1 1 1 1 1 1 1 N-mm 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0
End_lines_constraints
Lines_shell_face_load
E 5 - r1 N-mm 0.0 414 0
E 6 - r1 N-mm 0.0 0.0 414
E 7 - r1 N-mm 0.0 -414 0
E 8 - r1 N-mm 0.0 0.0 -414
End_shell_face_load
etc...

2 - To modify the dimension of a space object (ex: line(0,0,0 1,1.5,1.8) is very difficult because there is scale on x,y,z and they are not the same.
Is it possible to define the axes as global or local in the utilities/copy or move/entities/scale: scale factors x,y,z global or local?
if x local is parallel to the line, there is an x local scale factor, 1 for y and z. With that it's easy to modify the length of a line. The method is the same for surface and volume.

Thanks for its suggestions, we will include them in the list of tasks
to make for future versions.
