Offset Sketch - switching offset direction

Hello all,
I often struggle with the sketch offset feature. The offset starts in the wrong direction and if I switch direction the selection chain gets broken.
Is there a way I can switch offset direction and keep the chain selection active?

But this will work only if the origin lines are not set to contstruction lines.
can´t you just pull on the arrow to get the offset in the right direction?
What are your original sketch elements? I tried it with splines, arcs and lines and had no problems.
Thank you for your tipps. Seems like my origin sketch spline did not work because it was a "used" curve from a body edge. With standard curves your recommendation works.
