Measure in a loop
In older versions of Creo Elements/Direct Drafting, the MEASURE function ended after one execution. You can measure continuously instead, or keep the traditional behavior.
Use the MULTIPLE_MEASURE switch to measure in a loop.
MULTIPLE_MEASURE does not terminate other commands or functions. In the user input line, each new measurement overwrites the last. MULTIPLE_MEASURE works with MEASURE_ANGLE, MEASURE_COORDINATE, MEASURE_DISTANCE, MEASURE_LENGTH, and MEASURE_RADIUS. MULTIPLE_MEASURE does not work with MEASURE_AREA or MEASURE_TANG_ANG_AT_PNT.
Enter MULTIPLE_MEASURE ON in the user input line. When you're finished making measurements, type END to exit the loop.
Restore traditional measurement behavior with MULTIPLE_MEASURE OFF.

• The ruler Follow function, described later in this section, is not active during the Measure function.
• If any of the Measure functions are used within macros, the resultant measurement will be stored and can be obtained by using the INQ function.
