Add Measuring Line

Use this tool to add lines to indicate the distance between two points. These resize dynamically as room position and geometry changes, and can be included on printed reports.

Measuring lines can be made to extend from one edge of a room to another, or to any point within a room.

How To:

1. Select the room that you want to add a measuring line to

2. Click on the "Add Measuring Line" tool

3. Move the cursor so that the start point of the measuring line is positioned over the edge of a room or hole, then left-click.

Measurements on either side of the cursor are provided to ensure accuracy.

4. Move the cursor to another room or hole edge, then click to set the end point.
