check multiple distances

check multiple distances

(OP)
Hi,
Is there a way to check many distances. I have to click the distance button, select 2 points and then Ok. And I have to repeat the same things many times. I am looking for some way without leaving the distance command. Select 2 points then it shows the distance and select 2 different points again and again.

RE: check multiple distances

Seeing as how measuring distances in NX has changed at least 2 times and maybe even 3 times in the past 3 major releases, it would really help if you'd post which verson of NX you're using EACH time you post or include the version in the subject line.

when you pick the first two objects that you want to distance for the next one all you need to do is look at the distance toolbar that comes up when you use it there are two icons that look like dim's pick on the 2nd one and pick the new second string that you want a distance to. Or vise versa you could keep the 2nd one and repick the 1st one
