I just updated my App on my iPad, now while making a sketch for my model I just cant get rid of the measurements. Does this have to do something with the new update? It leads to so much visual clutter I can barely make out my sketch, even tho I just started it! I attached a screenshot of the mess. Please let me know if I am just a noob (which I am) or if this is included in the newest update. I would also greatly appreciate any help, on how to turn this off. I have already looked in the settings but can’t find anything relating to meassurements or preferences. Also in the meassurement tool there’s nothing checked or pinned. (that also doesn’t work in sketches and I dont know why).

Thank you all for you time!

Hi! You can disable them from Sketch mode under Settings.

Click on Search, then find “Always Show Dimensions” and turn if off
