--- Comment #6 from jack_sprat <ho...@spliced.me.uk> --- (with correction) Hi, I'm voting in support of Daniel's final proposal: the linear measurement tool. Interpreting PDF's of maps, graphs, plans &c. often benefits from being able to extract scaled dimensions. I propose that such a click-and-drag tool's context menu would allow it to be 'calibrated' with some training values (from the graph or map axes, or plan scale bars, for instance) - and then remain true as the PDF is zoomed in/out. The context menu would allow user to select linear/area/angular dimension options. A further context menu feature would allow the measured value to be inserted as an annotation. C'mon, it would be a beauty, don't you think? As an example, look at the 'measure line/area/bearing/angle' tool in QGIS thanks for listening - best wishes - JS -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
