Hi,
I guess you are using the open layer plugin. If so, Google layer go all
funny on you if you zoom too much. Vectorize a line in a shp file and see
if the background moves. If most likely will. If so, the problem is not
with the measuring tool but with the Google layer.

Hello all.
I just noticed that the "Measure line" tool is returning a distance
measurement that is dependent from the zoom level when I'm using the
Google satellite plugin. (increasing the zoom level results in a shorter
distance)
This is of course wrong, and the question is whether or not this could
be related to my setup or it is just a bug.
Tnx for help in advance.
