Does anyone have a tool to calculate distance and angle at the same time

The Draw tool in Experience Builder may provide what you need out-of-the-box? You can also enable snapping in the widget so you can snap along features as you draw to see the measurements.

Here's a sample: Draw widget and measurements

Press Tab on your keyboard while drawing to enter values and change the type of angle.

For those of you wondering, this must be a new feature for the draw widget. 1.16 developer edition does not have this ability. I did not see any description of this in the "What's New" that came out February 2025.

In the What's New from the February 2025 release, these are referred to as the Tooltips. You'll find the same functionality in the Edit widget.

Thank you @AlixVezina for the clarification. The toggle for the tooltips is found by clicking on the new settings icon when the widget is activated.
