Measurement display box obscures xyz lines

[rcaseKEL7A]

When I use the measure tool, the dialog box that shows the measurements frequently obscures the convergence point for the xyz lines. Obviously I can rotate the view to see them, but many times that wouldn't necessary if I could just see them right off. Is there any way to get this box to move out of the way, or to set it at a default location that is away from the xyz lines?

Short answer is No. not without orbiting the model to a good view like you said. However, there’s a way to get the three measurements “one at a time” by hitting X, Y or Z after picking your first point on screen and Navisworks will lock the measurement to that axis only.

Well shoot. I was kinda thinking that was going to be the case, but
couldn't hurt to ask. Maybe that's something they could look at for a
future update. Appreciated.

Thanks for the feedback! I’d rather ask from the dev team to focus on more "major" future updates rather than the measurement issue 🙂
