I was hoping the new whizz-bang Measure Tool would allow us to add our measurements, but apparently we only need to measure one thing at a time!

I asked for it in beta and more recently in a bug report to GS. It would be nice to actually give that tool something over the great method we have always used to measure!

Cheers,

This would be very useful. LJY.

Yes - it finally made it! Who says Graphisoft doesn't listen?!

i just wish - like a few other archiTools - that there be a one/multi-use toggle on the toolbar: like some functions in MS word - if you single-click the button you get to use it once, if you double-click it stays on for use until you double-click it off again . . .

I found it by accident.

Did you also catch that you can use "measure" to enter distances into Tracker? I'm not sure if that's new or not.

I did notice -- but also was not sure if it was a new feature.

Not me - I've been waiting since May 2006 for GS to add it. There was not much point to it IMHO if we couldn't add the cumulative distances. And the areas are a great bonus! Good stuff, Graphisoft.

We were able to invoke the measure command during element creation, to transfer the measurement into the distance of the element, if that's what you mean?
