Hello Shapr3D Team,  
You’ve really beefed up the measurement functions lately and I use them often and with pleasure, thanks for that.  
And the calculation functions in the number field is also very useful.

But what I unfortunately miss very often is the possibility to copy measured values and paste them into the number field, e.g. to reduce a wall thickness by a measured value. Or to extend a part by a measured distance or by a gap width.

At the moment I have to calculate this in my head or use a calculator app, but then I can’t copy the result into the number field. I have to remember the result and then type it into Shapr3D.

I think it would be an easy feature to implement and would improve the workflow of many.

Thanks  
Martin
