Planar dimensions

marshall_wentworth

When clicking on two lines, curves, points etc, we get dimensions in x,y,z and minimum distance, etc, but often times the points or curves are out plane, and the dimension I'm looking for is minimum distance in a plane, not in 3D. Having the ability to get minimum distance or other relevant dimension (center to center, maximum distance) in an xy, xz, yz plane, without having to do the math based off the xyz distances would be great.

@marshall_wentworth So you have a visual example that I can look at?  For holes usually surface or edge selections will give you C to C.  Let me know.

the problem is that minimum distance in projection shouldn't necessarily match the projection of minimal distance, so better to make a projection first and measure the value you need
