Measuring length and angle of lines? Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Prev Previous Post   Next Post Next
Hi

This may be really obvious, but if so, I would still like to have it pointed out to me.

In the process of using OmniGraffle Pro 5.1.1 to create a layout of my living room, I would like to be able to measure lengths (especially) and angles (preferably) of lines and connectors. In this particular case, I would like to measure the distance and angle between specific objects (my speakers and listening position) as well as estimating cable run lengths for other purposes.

When I create ordinary shapes such as rectangles, OG provides me in Geometry Properties with data on position, width, length, and angle. However, when connecting objects, I cannot seem to find this information for the connecting line - the places in the Geometry Properties are blank. Is this information available elsewhere (and if so, where?) or not at all (and if so, why?)?

TIA.

Niels Olof
