The Ruler is a simple tool for measuring the displacement and Euclidean distance between two points. It is accessible from the Tools menu in the Main Window:

Main Window > Tools > Ruler

ruler

The dialog has 3 coordinate widgets - From, To, and Displacement - each of which support drag-and-drop coordinates. Clicking "Calculate" computes the difference:

Displacement = To - From

and the label underneath shows the linear distance (Euclidean norm) of the displacement vector.
