Measuring Designs - ELNA XPRESSIVE 2 User Manual

Measuring designs

The Measure tool lets you measure the
distance between any two points in your
design workspace. When you measure from
one point to another, the distance is
displayed in the status line located at the
bottom of the window. The status line shows
the horizontal and vertical distances the
Measure tool travels from the x and y axes,
the angle measured, and the total distances.
All measurements except the angle are
calculated in the unit of measure you set
in the User Preferences.
To measure designs:
1 In the View toolbar, click the Measure
tool.
Your cursor changes to a measuring tape
when in the Design Workspace.
2 Click and drag your mouse until you are
finished measuring the item.
3 Let go of your mouse when you are
finished measuring.
4 Look in the status line at the bottom of
your screen for the measurement.
5 Right-click to stop the measuring tool.
