Measurement Mode

No image "applications/editors/josm/plugins/measurement/images/mapmode/measurement.png" attached to osm:source

This mode is to draw a path on the Measurement layer for measuring lengths.

It is the working mode of the Measurement plugin.

In Measurement mode the mouse pointer changes to a crosshair.

Click on the start point and go on with the next points of the path to be measured. A measurement layer is opened upon the first click and line segments are shown between the points of the path. Rightclick removes the last point of the path. The length of the path is shown in the No image "applications/editors/josm/plugins/measurement/images/measurement.png" attached to osm:source Measured values panel.

To create a path from a GPS track as path use Import path from GPX layer in the context menu of the Measure Path layer.
