When I start a new drawing it stays on for a while, then seems to disappear as I continue to work on the drawing. <BR /> <BR /> I want to be able to see how long a wall is as I draw it.<BR /> <BR /> I'm using the trial version to see if I want to stick wtih the program. Does using the trial version limit the capability of certain things?</T></DIV> Wed, 17 Mar 2010 18:04:40 GMT Anonymous 2010-03-17T18:04:40Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/want-distance-box-to-stay-on-while-drawing-walls/m-p/206345#M111716 <DIV class="actalk-migrated-content"><T>I'm new to ArchiCAD v 13, and my dilemma is that I can't figure out how to keep the distance box on whenever I start drawing walls.
