Hello,
I'm running into an issue where my "Measure Length" tool is giving me an incorrect value. I am trying to measure a length of conduit, but it is giving me a length double of what the actual length is. I had it defined as an offset partial off the back of a sidewalk. Has anyone ever run into this before? It's an issue if I can't trust the measure tools.
Thanks!
Ben
Not sure where the "View Z" / "Global Z" option is shown on this dialog....? I tried all of the "Flatten Direction" options and no dice. Also, where would you find turning off diplay custom linestyles? This is getting a little advanced..
when you click measure tool a tab docks to the left (usually, search it in your window)
For Switching off line style
Thanks for the suggestion Ramanan, unfortunately turning off the linestyle did not change the value from the Measure length tool.
Tried with with View Z on ?
I don't see a View Z option in my dialog...I tried all the options. To be clear, my issue is with "Measure Length" tool instead of "Measure Distance".

If you select the object, does it show dependencies? I'm wondering if its measuring all the elements needed to define it?
Can you use one of the reporting tools on it? I believe some will report the length.

Thanks for the reply Chuck, I took a look under the hood and the element length is shown as 79' with no dependencies. The Measure Length tool doubles it. The horizontal report also shows 79'.
