measurement problem after drawing is opened

I'm having a problem with the on screen measurement dialogue in the lower right corner of my fusion 360 screen. When I'm working on a model and I open a drawing during that session and go back to my model and try to use the quick measurement tool it's locked up and will no longer function until I close fusion 360 and start it back up. Is anyone else having this problem?

I am a little puzzled.  There is no "permanent" measuring tool in the lower right hand corner of the Fusion 360 screen.  You do have a measure dialog which you can drag to that corner but this dialog box will automatically close when you switch environments from model to drawing.  Take a screen capture of this measuring tool and post it.  Is it the same dialog you get when you select "Measure" from the Inspect menu?

Before opening a drawing it worksBefore opening a drawing it worksAfter opening a drawing it's locked up should be 0.0625After opening a drawing it's locked up should be 0.0625

Before I open a drawing the tool works when I CTL select two faces it displays the correct dimension. After I open a drawing and go back to my model it is locked on the last dimension before opening the drawing. The second image should be 0.063 in not 3.00 in.

@mbrowneRV2LB Seen that problem lots of times but never bothered to report it. Sometimes the lower left corner get stuck with a warning triangle of X as well. Restart fixes it, transient bugs seem pointless reporting but I guess unless someone does they will not be investigated.
