If you go to "Window" / "Preferences" / "Extensions"; Check "utilities tools" and then press "OK", when you go to "Tools" / "Utilities" and then "Query Tool": the tip of the pointer will give you the "x, y & z" dimensions from the axis.

Looking forward to it. Thanks!

Excellent Plug-in!! How to I change the quantities to SF and CY (ft^2 & yards^3)??

Chris, I really like this plugin. I've only used it for a couple of hours though... What is the date of the latest version? Would it (will it) be possible to add animated functions to a model? say you build a tower crane; is there a way to cause it to swing left or right by pushing a key?
