LiveMeasure
Measure and show edges length, segments length and faces area in real time. Work with Splines, Editable_Poly and Editable_mesh objects and Edit_Poly modifier.
-- In Polygon/Element sub-object level will show the selected faces area in generic units only.
-- In Edge/Border sub-object level will show the length of selected edges in user defined units.
-- In vertex sub-object level, when vertex is move will show the length of edges that is common for the selected vertex.
-- If top sub-object level is active will show the dimension of the selected object.
The edge/segment length and face area will update when the edges/segments/faces are scaled or when the vertex is moved.
In top left corner of the viewport will be shown the total face area or total edge length.
