Perpendicular distance measurement between 2 lines

[[Vi...]]

Hello Community, Need help to measure below distances in Mesh without the CAD, I was able to create the lines using the center of the axis of two holes on the top plane but was not able to figure out how to measure the perpendicular distances between the lines. (see below)

You can measure it as projected point.

What we have used to measure on ScanMax was cartesian distance perpendicular from 1st element to midpoint of 2nd element.

So make point from your measured line, then make distance as projected point.
Now you can measure X,Y - for this you have to use correct alingment.
For XY ( or any combined ) it should not matter that much.

Hello,

try the tech guide under "Construct 2-Line Distance".

Two line distance will report the closest distance - i am not sure if this is what author wants.
