MeasureTool 5: Spot Measurement not working?

MeasureTool 5: Spot Measurement not working?

2005-07-10 by edrudolpho

I've been using MeasureTool Version 4 with Mac OS 10.3.5.  When Roy (I think it was) 
mentioned that PM 5.x has a MeasureTool that works with Tiger, I downloaded the newer 
version.  However, with Version 5, Spot Measurement is grayed out, although the Spot 
Measurement function works fine on Version 4.  Does anyone have any thoughts on why 
that might be?

Probably because too many people were using it in demo mode without 
purchasing the software, so GMB started limiting the features in Demo 
mode. But this is just a guess.

That's my guess too.  But someone (was it Roy) reported that it was working, which is why 
I posted this.
