will be pre-highlighted when the mouse passes over them. This allows you to clearly
select a marker, if the measure is to be dynamic.
From the Home tools, click the Measure tool.

From the Measures panel, click Add.
A measure with the default name Measure N (Measure 1, 2, and so on) is
added to the end of the list. After you add the measure to the list, define it
in the graphics area. The first point that you click on the image in the
graphics area is automatically set as the start point for the
measure.
Select Static Measure from the drop-down menu above the
Coordinates collector.
Click on a point on the image in the graphics area to set this as the starting
point for the measure.
A line is displayed and updated dynamically when you move the
mouse.
Select another point on the image and click the left mouse button. This is the
endpoint.
The line between the two points remains in the graphics area and is
updated dynamically when you move the mouse.
Values for the measures start and
end positions, the measure length, and the Delta X and Delta Y values are
displayed in the panel.
Verify that the measure is still selected in the Measures list.
Select options under Displayed Values and Display options to change the measure
information that is displayed in the graphics area.
To delete the measure and remove it from the list, click
Delete.
Note:
Double-clicking a measure in the list box jumps to the time
step/frame of the measure’s creation and shows the measure.
