Part Measure Angular

Description

This command measures the angle between two straight edges, two planar faces or one straight edge and a planar face and displays the measurement in the 3D view.

The appearance of the measurements can be changed in the preferences.

Usage

1. Select two straight edges, two planar faces or one straight edge
2. There are several ways to invoke the command:
   • Press the Measure Angular button.
   • Select the Measure → Measure Angular‏‎ option from the menu.
3. Alternatively the command can be launched without prior selection. A selection dialog then opens in the Task panel. A Control widget also provides buttons to reset the selection, toggle the measurement display in the 3D view, and clear all measurements.
4. Measurements are automatically discarded when closing the document.

Notes

• You cannot use the Draft snap tools with this command.
• To add dimensions to drawings use the dimension tools from the TechDraw Workbench.
• For more comprehensive measuring tools, install the Manipulator Workbench (an external workbench).
