Showing distance while editing

[VenkataSrikanth_Dasari]

Hi,

I have to show the distance while drawing a line or area for polygon. If I am drawing a line it should the distance between the line and polygon(resides behind the lines). I will select a polygon first and then while drawing a line(for every vertex might be good) it should show distances for all the segments of the polygon.

Please suggest me how to figure this out.

Cheers,

This post shows an example of how to show the radius length while drawing a circle. It should give you some insight about how to do this with what you want to accomplish. It is written in 3.x, though.
