How to perform multiple consecutive distance analysis
How to perform multiple consecutive distance analysis
(OP)
As far as I know, giving the analysis-->distance command allows us only 1 distance measurement. After I get the results, the interface turns off. I am really bored of giving the distance command repetitively. Is there a way of measuring multiple distances using the same command?

It would also help greatly if you (and everyone else) would include the version of NX you're using since there have been many changes to most of the inquiry tools in the last 3 years.
The above is assuming you're using NX3 or newer.

But ideauser is right on his suggestion. But the problem there is you cannot measure a totally different place just after you measure one.
Anyway thanks everyone for the support.

The second and third icons in the distance dialogue box are the first and second points to measure the distance.
The info icon gives the information in a seperate window.
You can continue measuring distance as long as you continue click on the point icons.
Click on first point,click on second point,gives the distance,again click on first point icon,select a new point,it gives a new distance.

You can perform multiple measurements on multiple objects by following the steps given by ideasuser and geo12. You need to click on the 2nd and 3rd icons of the Distance dialog bar. Also, don't forget the Snap Point toolbar needs to be set accordingly as well.
