Richard-

I'm not exactly sure that I understand what you want to do. Are you looking
to get the length from the point on the trace back to a pin or pad,
following the trace through bends and arcs? Or are you just looking to see
the distance from the crosshair to the ends of that particular line segment?

If the latter, you could easily draw a line that is the dimension you want
and use that as a ruler. It would be pretty easy to add this info in a
tool-tip that pops up when you hover over a line.

The former is a little more difficult, but it could be done, if that's what
you need.

The PPA you use appears to only update only occasionally. So, if we
implement this, you would have to build pcb from the git repo to test this
feature.

Thanks,
--Chad
