Dimension between two points in 3D space how?

Rhino Rhino for Windows

Hi,
I have two points in 3d space and wish to place a dimension between them.
daft as it may sound, I have never had need of this, until now, whilst trying to scale one item to match another needing to match distance S1 S2 to T1 T2.
is there no dimension command that places a dim between two points in perspective view ?

I need ‘as the crow flies’ dim.

perhaps it should be called CrowDim !

I proposed that 3-click dimensions years ago, but this is yet to be implemented… Maybe in Rhino 10 or Rhino 11…
