The tool returns the distance calculations for the X and Y component.

Additionally, the following results are generated in this operation:

• The line connecting the two points
• The angle of that line (relative to the x-axis)
• The coordinates of the selected (farthest or closest) point on the curve

Measure from a Curve to a Line

This operation is available if a Bead Tool has been added to the inspection prior to the particular instance of
the Measure Tool being edited. In this operation, the software calculates the distance between a curve and a
line produced by other Measure Tool.

This measurement is made from either the closest or the farthest point on the curve. It is the shortest distance
from the line to the selected point, and is generated by creating a line perpendicular to the original line that
intersects the selected point on the curve. The points are selected in the Bead tab in the Measure Tool.
