Am I being obtuse, or has the Measure tool been removed?

I'm sure I used it when I first started using OnShape. I can't find it anymore. The help files say it should be at the right end of the bottom of the screen, but there's nothing there. Is it only on certain screens? I want to measure some hole diameters on an assembly without going back and editing the sketches. Thanks.

The measurements should appear whenever you have entities selected in a Part Studio or an assembly.

Hi - The Measure tool appears automatically when you have something selected (that can be measured) in a Part Studio or Assembly. I hope this helps. Thanks for asking!

Sometimes especially in Assemblies it can become slow and may take a long time to show up.5 -

Thanks everyone. The help files show a little icon that looks like a pair of dividers, and that was what I kept looking for. I didn't think to just select something on the assembly. Works great. Now back to work.
