Line (Tape Measure)

The Line feature allows you to create two-point lines in medical assets.

Creating a Line

In the medical labeling editor, click on a "Polyline"-type class from the "Tools" section on the left.

Click with the left mouse button on the volume wherever you would like to start the line. Then click again where you would like to end it.

To edit the line, click and drag on the editing points on the line.

As lines are 2D, they will only be viewable in the view where you have created them.

Viewing the Line Measurement

As you hover over the line, or click on it, its real-world measurement in millimeters will become visible:

The Objects panel also shows the measurement next to each line. When multiple lines use the same class, the class header shows their total measurement. If the lines use different units, Ango Hub displays a separate total for each unit.

Measurements and totals update when you move, edit, or delete a line.

Changing the Class of a Line

Left click on the line to select it, then right-click anywhere on the line and click on the three dots.

Then, from the "Change Category" sub-menu, pick the class you'd like to change the line to. The line will be assigned to that class.

Adding a Description / Name to a Line

You may add a manual text description or name to a line by clicking on it and pressing "D" on your keyboard.

Quickly Navigating to a Line

You may quickly navigate to the slice where a line was drawn by holding Ctrl and hovering with the mouse cursor over the line's row in the "Objects" panel on the left-hand side of the screen.
