Normally, when a job is run, interactive measurements are automatically placed on the image at the location specified in Create a new template and edit it within Job Mode. However, it is also possible to create an interactive measurement task where the image has no measurements pre-placed. In this case, ensure that the operator knows where to perform the measurement (e.g. using a suitable workbench description).

  1. Click the desired measurement.
  2. Delete the measurement using the DEL key on your keyboard.

The tool remains in the Workbench Area but the measurement is no longer displayed in the image. The operator running the job later can create the measurement freely instead of modifying a pre-placed measurement.

You can also use this feature to correct a faulty measurement while working in Create a new template and edit it within Job Mode:

  1. Delete the measurement from the image and click the Redraw button in the tool to repeat the measurement correctly.
