I am relatively new to Shapr. I am using a desktop with Windows 11. Whenever I try to click on a line or circle for a measurement it automatically turns on the chamfer tool. In sketch mode Point to point and 3 point are the only options available. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
Try to clic on the edge of the circle and you’ll see Length and Diameter in the panel Measurement. Idem for Line without Diameter of course.
You can also open Measurement panel, clic +Point to point Measurement and hover over the item you want to measure, points will appear. You choose them.

Thanks, That was helpful. A lot of the videos I watch are on a tablet and there seems to be a big difference from a desktop and mouse.
