Please I need to know when I open an Autocad file, how I can measure distance between 2 points and how I can use deferment measure style

Hello,

Do you mean measuring by specifying two points on the drawing area with the mouse and creating a dimension based on these points?

Hello,

CAD VCL doesn't have built-in measuring tools, you should implement this functionality in your code or try CADEditorX component that has built-in editing and measuring tools and can be used in Delphi as well.
