The button is displayed in blue. If this icon is not visible, it may have been replaced by another measurement icon in the same icon group. Click the white arrow below the icon group button to expand it and display all the buttons in the group. See “Overview of Tools Pane Features”.

  1. Click on the image to place the pointer arrow head.

  2. Drag your mouse pointer and click again to set the end point.
