Measuring distance

Postby Pumapilote » 03 Sep 2017, 09:45

Hi
I have a suggestion there any possibility to measure the distance between any points in the maps also during flight
Not between you position and other points but between two différents points
Have nice day

I use an old method, put my fingers on the map and compare with the scale, that is indicated
Precision is not metric, but this is more than enough for me
And it forces me doing mental exercise…

Do you haver suggestion, how to do it?
When you tap map by two fingers, it unlocks the map. Maybe display small window at the top with distance?

I also measure distances on map by eye evaluation, using the displayed map scale.

I guess that the distance precision achieved by double finger touch (unless you choose already displayed items) would be similar to eye scaling.

cheers,
