Zero Length Line (Apparently) When Using Analyze/Distance

I’ve got a line that shows up as zero length when measured using Analyze/Distance but when I dimension it the distance shows up. So . . .

Better minds than mine are needed.

Hi Hillary - the command line reports for distances and length follow the precision of the units setting pre file:

If you change that to decimal, you’ll see the expected distance. Better is to set the units in the Distance, Length etc reports as DecimalInches, then you’ll also get a more precise read and leave the document setting alone.
