the perp and tangential snap is disabled when I am trying to measure distances. but they are active when I use tools to draw. any idea what is the reason for this?
thanks

This is a normal limitation of the measure tool of Microstation. You will have to create a smartline using the snaps you need and then measure that.

yes, it is on.
Is yout accudraw ON? or CivilAccuDraw ON?
Perp because there is a measurement method perpendicular. But no idea for tangent. Maybe due to its limitation: Note: This snap mode is only active when using the Place Arc, Place Ellipse, Place Line, Place SmartLine, or Place MultiLine tools.
