Description Nicolas F. 2016-06-02 15:27:23 UTC

Currently, the measure tool will only show distance and angle measurements in the tool options docker. Sometimes, people may not currently see this though as they start measuring, and either get confused as to where the measurement is displayed or get annoyed at having forgotten to tab to the right docker again before starting to line up their cursor just right.

By adding a small hovering tooltip displaying the angle and the distance near the cursor position, this could be made more intuitive and make for a smoother workflow.

Reproducible: Always
