I am coming from CS5 Illustrator for reference. I am hoping there is a function similar to clicking once and then entering a specific measurement you want for your line. I use the software for pattern drafting and often create straight lines of specific lengths as 'rulers' or to plot points that I then connect. I'm not seeing anything in the tool bar that relates to line length and I'm wondering if I'm overlooking it. Thanks! ~K
