Using Measurements from Within the Pull Tool

  1. Enter the Pull tool
  2. Select an object to pull
  3. Enter the Measure tool (shortcut is "e") and measure any single object or measure between two objects
  4. Click the measurement result that will drive the Pull (hover over measurements to display a purple box). Once selected, that single measurement will display on screen with arrows pointing to either object chosen for measurement.
  5. Click in the highlighted dimension box and modify the value for a one-time adjustment of the model.

Measurement groups can also be created from Area and Perimeter results. Modifying the group then adjusts the model to produce a desired area. For example, create a Measurement group for the area of a side of a box. While pulling the front of the box, you can enter a new area value for the side to complete the Pull.
