Align sets of lines

I am looking for a quick way to align verticle pairs of lines that are unequal distance apart and sometimes unequal lenghth so that midpoint between lines are aligned. Right now I draw horizontal lines between each set and use a verticle line from one of these to align the other pairs (red lines on example).

If there is no easy way already incorporated in AC then my thought is a button that will draw lines on a specified layer other than the current layer and in a specified color, and another button to delete everything on that specified layer. I am not sure how much of this is even possible.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciatted.

OOPS. Attached wrong file.

Have you tried Offset?

I can't really think of a way to automate what you want to do, my only suggestion is maybe use the Mid between 2 points (MTP) Osnap rather than actually drawing a temporary construction line.

Thanks all. Looks like MTP is going to work pretty good, at least it will allow only drawing 1 line to use for orignal alignment position instead of extra lines all over the place.

Don't forget about OSnap Tracking. I'd probably put a line or something to mark the X coordinate rather than re-snapping MTP back to the same reference point each time.

thank you nestly. Your demo was exactly what I had come up with.
