In 3D

Select this check box to draw the measure lines in 3D.

If the measure lines become obscured by other geometry, clear this check box to draw the lines in 2D over the top of geometry.

Show Measurement Values in Scene View

Select this check box if you want to display the dimension labels in the Scene View.

Show XYZ Differences in Scene View

Check this option to display the XYZ coordinate differences of a two-point measurement (Point to Point or the active line in a Point to Multiple Points measurement).

Use Center Lines

When this check box is selected, the shortest distance measurements snap to the center lines of parametric objects.

When this check box is clear, the surface of the parametric objects is used for the shortest distance measurement instead.

Note: Changing this option does not affect any measurement currently in place. To see any changes, clear the measurement, and start again.
Auto-zoom when measuring shortest distances
Select this check box to zoom the scene view into the measured area (shortest distances).
