Measure
Measure reports the distance between two picked points with OSNAP support, orthogonal assistance and a lightweight temporary dimension visual.

- Checking clearances, diameters, offsets and point-to-point distances without changing geometry

Step by step
- Choose Measure.
- Pick the first point using the desired snap.
- Pick the second point; use Shift when you need the current orthogonal precision behaviour.
- Read the displayed distance and exit/cancel when finished.
Non-destructive
Measure does not create a permanent solid. Its arrows/centre line are temporary viewport feedback for the current measurement.
Keep in mind
- Use Guide Lines when you need a measured reference to remain available as persistent snap geometry.
