Measuring Tools - Add Horizontal and Vertical

In Control you have the ability to use the horizontal and vertical dimensioning when in the cross-section views. Would be nice to add these for field users.

      Hi Ryan,

      Thank you very much for the clarification, completely my misunderstanding and I appreciate the additional screenshot.

      Let me discuss this with the development team and then come back to you with more information.

      I have changed the Idea status from "Already exists" to "Future Consideration".

      Kind regards,

      Luke

      Good Morning,

      Yes, I think you misunderstood what I was looking for. I'm aware you can use the distance command within the cross-section views but that doesn't give you a "dimensioning" type measurement which comes from those tools in the previous screenshot I attached. I attached another screenshot to clarify what I was looking for.

      Hello Ryan,

      Thanks for raising this Idea.

      I may have misunderstood your request however I believe the functionality you require already exists in Field.

      In the attached screenshot, I have selected an element in the Model. Under "Tools" I have selected "Cross section: perpendicular" and then, once I have the cross-section, I have clicked on Tools again and then "Distance", with this I am able to measure distance both vertically and horizontally.

      Please let me know if this is what you are looking for?

      Many thanks,

      Luke
