Measure tool - add function to drop a Guide at either end


Recommended Posts

Measure tool is extremely useful but also undercooked seeing as it disappears instantly on switching to another tool – which you would have to do to apply any corrections made based on the measurements in the first place.

I think you should find a way to make the result of the measurements survive switching over to another tool somehow and the simplest idea I can think of is to add an option for it to drop a Guide at either end, chosen by the user.

Let the guides have a custom color, selectable from the toolbar at the top and you're golden: users can then rapidly measure, drop temporary guides, realign objects then delete the temps in quick successions.
