      I have looked but can't find what I'm looking for. I work with timber frame and need the axes to be correctly oriented so that when I run "Generate report", the information is not garbled. It would be convenient to click on an object and have the LenX, LenY, LenZ displayed as a quick check that the the axes are correct. Anyone have any thoughts?

      Regards,
      Kris

        I'm not totally sure about your question but,

        You can set the line colour to show axis in the styles settings.

          Good point for the axes check. I would also like to have the dimensions displayed so I know the material size is correct and know the length.

                Box,

                Unfortunately, the Entity Info window doesn't show what I want. Only a single length, area or volume. It doesn't give dimensions for a whole object. It would be nice if it did.

                Dave has pointed me at a plugin that seems to do the job.
