Hi,

I am using the mouse to draw lines in draftsight, and wanting to have the lines be a specific length (example 5 units long).  I want to have a display somewhere on the screen that shows me how long the line is while it is being drawn. 

The display of coordinates is not sufficient for this purpose as it is all referenced on the coordinate plane, which requires a lot of calculations to use for selecting line lengths.

Ideally I am looking for a setting that shows the length of the line at the mouse cursor while drawing. (and angles or other pertinent information).
