Can't see a measurement when using Measure Icon

Bertho:

  You cant make the measurement snap ( but thats a good idea, I may have to steal it..)
, if you wish to see the center distance bwteen two gears, just hold down your
crtl key and select each of them in the project tree. When G2 see's you have two gears
selected it will then give you the actual distance between them.

Thanks Art for a very fast reply to my questions.
When I click and drag the distance is properly displayed in the project window as long as I keep the mouse button pressed.
When I release it both the measured line and the text disappears.  Moving the center bar down does not help.

Unrelated: I tried to attached a screen capture.  I am probably missing something obvious but it looks like it requires having the image on website and then insert its URL.
There got to be a simpler way but that is what is shown in the help file for inserting a picture.

Hi Bertho:

  Sorry about that one, its a bug caused by recent additions to the base. Ive made the measurement text stick as of next update. (likely around 2-3rd week of October..)

No problem at all, it is easy to work around it.
Thanks Art for a great program and super support.

I got back into my project, but I still don't see any measurement.  I can make the white line, which disappears as soon as I let go of the mouse button, but nowhere on the screen is any kind of measurement.  I can see the coordinates changing but that's it.

Stephen:

  Im not sure whats happening to your fonts.. My measurment shows up about 1/2 down the page.. Ive raised it quite a bit
and your not seeing it.. Im thinking it may not be printing on your system.  If you select a gear is all the other data showing up?

Nope, I'm just using the default fonts, BUT I had them at large.  When I moved to medium, then the dimension shows below the escapement in my design. 

Sorry to have bugged you on this :(

Stephen:

Np, Ill make a change so medium is the default....
