Description
This measure instrument is really simple and is used to measure the
distance between two points on the screen.
Die Meßlinie ist sehr einfach gehalten und dient der Bestimmung des
Abstands zwischen zwei Punkte auf dem Bildschirm.
Move the blue and green point to define the line. The measure line
also calculates the angle between this line and a horizontal line
at the blue point.
