DasTactic demonstrating distance measuring tool
Queue to 29:00 if the link doesn't do it for you. Fascinating to watch and good to have it available now.

Thank You for the Head Up! Grabbing the Beta now. If it is there, that is a game changer!

My pleasure. Yes, it's available in 1.1.8.7. Good luck!

Edit: From patch notes

UI IMPROVEMENTS
- added a new distance measurement ruler tool, to activate hold shift and left click, release left click but hold shift and drag
- holding shift will also turn on distances in various hover info cards and mission descriptions

Just FYI, you can measure distance even in the current live version, in a way. Select an object (like a ship) then hover the mouse over another object (like a starbase) and the starbase tooltip will have distance between the two objects on it.
