Measuring in the Finite Element Modeling Workbench

The measuring tools allow you to determine the size of mesh elements or the distance between objects.

You can use the measuring tools available in the Finite Element Modeling Workbench to verify the size of elements in a mesh or to check the size of an item or the distance between items. Measurements within the finite element model are non-persistent. The measurements are not added to the specification tree, and when you click OK in the Measure Item dialog box or in the Measure Between dialog box the measurement disappears.
