> ## Creating 3D Markup Measure Entities

> When marking up 3D files, you can create markup measure entities. The measure options in Markup mode work slightly different than in View mode.

> When measuring in Markup mode, the specified measurement lines and values are displayed on the current active markup layer as entities. These entities can be moved, resized, or deleted.

> Note: If you manipulate a part of a model, the measure entity values do not update accordingly.

> AutoVue provides the option to “snap” to different entity types on the model.

> In Markup mode, you can choose from several measurement options to create markup measure entities. From the Markup menu, select Add Entity, and then select Measurement to access the following measure options:

> Name | Description
> --- | ---
> Angle | Measure the precise angle between three vertices or any two edges, planes or faces. From the Markup Entity toolbar, you can also click Angle .
> Arc | Measure the precise radius, length and angle of any arc and calculate the center point location. From the Markup Entity toolbar, you can also click Arc .
> Distance | Measure the precise distance between any two Vertex, Edge, Midedge, Arc Center or Face. From the Markup Entity toolbar, you can also click Distance .
> Minimum Distance | Measure minimum distance between any two Vertex, Edge, Midedge, Arc Center or Face. From the Markup Entity toolbar, you can also click Minimum Distance . Note: You cannot create a markup measure entity when measuring minimum distance.
> Vertex Coordinates | Provide the coordinates of each vertex. From the Markup Entity toolbar, you can also click Vertex Coordinates .
