ArcGIS Pro: How to measure while working in layout mode?

For example, in ArcMap, one can still measure the distance inside the layout at particular scale as shown in the screenshot below.

How this can be performed in Pro?

You need to Activate the layout 

Then while on the activated layout, pick the tool you want

And away you go

This is so stupid, why do they have to make it so difficult and make you "Activate" the layout. Sooo frustrating!

Do you have any ideas to suggest to Esri to make it more intuitive?
