      If I measure the distance from one point on an object to another point and then from that point to another, etc. can I keep a running total? Am I missing something about the tape measure tool or is there a plug in to get a cumulative total of consecutive, continuous measurements?

        If you select several lines anywhere then Right Click "Entity Info" you will have total length! πŸ˜‰

        So draw simple lines between your objects!

        is for another funny things! πŸ˜„

        PS Just Group all before draw "measure lines" for a more easy select, erase them after...
        ...and of course for all these new lines don't make surfaces with yet existing on the screen !

        Or Draw them on a new layer but don't forget to Group all before for same reason...
