Verify Distance

You can use the function Verify Distance on the toolstrip to measure the minimum distance between two elements. The elements can be points, lines or surfaces. You can take multiple measurements in a row and view the result of each measurement in the dialog box. You can also view the measurement results in the working window.

You can also start the function by pressing Shift+V.

  6. Select the command from the list.
