Is there any way to find this red-marked distance i.e. Wall to a certain object’s specific distance?

_Dim
First dimension point → _QuadrantSnap (the left middle of the toilet)
Second dimension point-> _PerpendicularSnap (the wall)
third click for distance.
check the help for annotations and annotation styles.
Dimension commands create dimensions that annotate length, angle, radius, etc. parallel to the active CPlane. Dimensions are attached to the object by History.
hope this (reading above pages) helps
kind regards -tom

Hello,
I’m working on a modeling aid concept that is sort of a hybrid between the Gumball and Revit Temporary Dimensions.
Here’s what the Revit temp dimensions look like:

Here’s a video of my concept (so far):
Both in Revit and Rhino Gumball you can click on the dimension/gumball arrow and manually type a dimension.
The object will then move this amount (in Rhino) and in Revit will move the object the distance from subtracting the current dimension length and the new entered…
