If you wish to find the distance between any two points on the display, use the "Measure" tool from the tool bar. |

This mode can also be invoked with the Toggle Measure Distance command (in menu Edit / Modes / Edit). Another way to measure distances is to use the cursor coordinates, displayed in the status area.

In measure mode, each click places a new point on the display, and shows the distance to the previous point. Clicking the right button lets you start a new measure point without connecting it to the previous one. Double-clicking the right button removes the measurements.

The measured distance can be used by the Array... command (in menu Edit) to specify spacing (see Section 6-4).
