The Measure tool is a quick and easy way to measure simple distances or areas. It is a way to estimate the size of a structure when required. For example several automatic operators require information concerning the dimension of the structures. Use the Measure Tool to get these informations.

  1. The Measure tool must be selected.
  1. Select the appropriate tool (linear distance or closed regions).
  2. Apply the measurement over the structure of interest.
  3. Right-click to confirm the area of the measurement.

All the objects drawn manually are listed in the data table. Please refer to the Object Table chapter for more details about the data management.

The objects manually created are labelled using a TAG. By default, the TAG inherits the tool name (e.g., the Magic Wand tool has the Magic Wand TAG).
