Measurable: The New Blender Add-on for CAD Style Measurements

This addon is exactly what I was waiting for!! Great job!!, I'm looking foward to see how evolves, and why not also dreaming with sort of addon where CadSketcher, Measurable and Cad Transform all live nicely happy and integrated.

Very good stuff! I've just bought it and I'm happy enough. Thank you

Loving it. Hope there'll be an option soon for aligning dimension text parallel to dimension lines rather than perpendicularly. Edit: Also would be very helpful to be able to pick a dimension in the scene and have it highlighted in the N panel or modifier stack for editing. Sifting through a long list in the stack and trying to guess which is which is such a pain once you have more than 5 dimensions in the scene.

Thanks this is great, I would love if you could restrict dimensions between two vertices to a single axis, ie. for showing the height differences between two points that are not necessarily aligned on the z-axis

This is so great! I would love to be able to create a template text box area for CAD style info about the object. I would love to see a tutorial on something like that. I haven't been able to find anything like this type of overlay that would use it's own orthographic camera or some other way to create a re-useable template with a variety of text boxes/logos, etc. Maybe I missed some basic Blender utility tool for this, but I can't figure out the best/easiest approach. My actual goal is to create a 'paper space' style view of the model in a separate workspace, but so far that doesn't seem possible, without using the compositing workspace and rendering out multiple camera views and combining them. Your tutorial on that was very helpful, although would be fantastic to have the ability to add template info window easily.

great job. can we have multiple objects in same container. so can more easily dimensions complex assemblies. cheers.

amazing add-on, i follow the video, but there is a problem, when i insert the measure of internal circle, the dimension text, is rotated of 90 and in camera is not visible, while other measure like angle,left side edge, is correct visible in camera, why the text measure is not in camera vision? how do you rotate text by 90 gradi?

How can we add a vertex on curve edge? I have a triangle and I want to add a point on the opposite side of a specific angle. Can you make a tutorial on that if possible?

Can you please make an example for architects? Using a floor plan, for example.

Could you do a short video on how to export to SVG format for making technical drawings in Inkscape? Cheers

Just got this Addon and have it installed. Followed your video, Maker Tales video and the online instructions. I select two vertices on a simple cube, go back to Object mode and select the bounding box. at this point all the options for adding a measurement are grayed out. I've tried this on my desk top as well as my laptop with the same results. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you very much

after selecting the vertices in edit mode an then select the container in object mode ;the add measurementsmenue stays grayed-out. What is the reason?

You're Dope Bro

can we link the measure(initial and final vectors) with geometry nodes?

Hi Johnny, I just purchased Measurable. Thanks for creating this. I'm learning to use it (less than an hour). (FYI Engineer by training, CAD). My question is about scaling and making edits. On a box, two object length across two vertices if I scale the object in Object Mode, the measurement callout gets longer along with the box but the dimension value doesn't change. If I delete the measurement and remeasure, I get the original value but I've scaled the box so the measurement should have increased. If repeat the operation, but do it in Edit mode, so in Edit mode, select all of the box and then scale it, the measurement doesn't get longer but if I remeasure the edge, the measurement is accurate. Is that the best way to scale something (in Edit Mode)? Is there another way where the measurement will increase or change with the object when its changed? Thanks

Would be good to be able to set the default empty sizes -- they are far too small on some projects.

How to set up manually increased scale of measurements by default? When I add measurements, they are too small.

great

check bforartist for how they used icons menu and make a toolbar of this dimension like an icon for 2 point dimension. or radius icon toolbar for radius

Hi can you upload to blender market?
