I like your Idea! - something like: - Enter Measurement mode. - Select outer edge face of my box - select outer edge of my cylinder - See "1.73 units...

That looks like they had the same idea but thought it through to the end :) - like they (AutoCAD) were earning money with CAD tools! I am thinking about...

A vertex in "graphics-speak" is a xyz-float position - so that was exactly my point above: using color-encoding to find the entity you have clicked on, and as soon as...

Thats all UI/UX for me :) I would split the mouse selection (to select source-level objects) and measurement (selecting vertices and edges) in source code. When we want to measure...
