measure function of input box

[alundr]

make the measure function in the dimension imput box function the same as the measure tool.  Currently, it will do edges and point to point, but not face-to-face or angles.

This would be very helpfull. I ran into the same issues before. It's just a small modifications I think that will make a great workflow improvement.

Additionally: I often ran into the problem to measure a distance which is not along a mainaxis when measuring inside a feature dialogue and this "feature-measurementtool" sometimes measures only the lenght of a curve...(?)

Following suggestion: if I want to measure a distance inside a feature dialogue the measurement-tool (point to point) should display all distances -> x-y-z and projected distances xy - xz - yz and certainly as it works at the moment the direct point to point distance.
