1. Optionally preselect the entities to be measured.
2. There are several ways to invoke the command:
   • Press the Std Measure button.
   • Select the Tools → Measure option from the menu.
3. The Measurement task panel opens. See Options for more information.
4. If no geometrical entities were preselected, do one of the following:
   • Select the geometrical entities while leaving the Mode as Auto so that the mode will be automatically determined based on the selection.
   • Choose a Mode other than Auto and then select the geometrical entities (clicking on them again will deselect them):
     • Distance - the shortest distance between the selected entities, if circular edges are selected then the distance between the centers of the circles is measured,
     • Distance Free - distance between two freely selected points (belonging to different entities - edges, faces),
     • Angle - angle between the selected entities,
     • Length - length of the selected edge,
     • Position - coordinates of the selected vertex,
     • Area - area of the selected face,
     • Radius - radius of the selected circular edge,
     • Center of Mass - COM of the selected edge, face or solid (only if preselected in the tree).
5. The measurement result will be shown in the Result field and on a label displayed in the 3D view. That label will also include an icon indicating the type of measurement. The labels can be customized in the Preferences. They can be moved in the 3D view by dragging them with a cursor.
6. Press the Reset button to delete the measurement or the Save button to keep it. Saved measurements are put in a Measurements group in the Tree view.
7. Press Esc or the Close button to finish the command.

• introduced in 1.1 Press the button to change the settings:
  • Auto Save - if checked, the last measurement is saved when starting a new measurement (holding Shift can temporarily disable this behavior),
  • Additive Selection - if checked, clicking on subsequent geometrical entities adds them as selections for the same measurement, otherwise Ctrl must be pressed to do this.
• For the Distance and Distance Free modes the Show Delta checkbox is displayed. If this checkbox is checked, the ビューShow Delta property of the measurement is set to true and 3 additional projected measurements are shown in the 3D view.
