Measurement report checklist

When you share a measurement, the number alone is rarely enough. Use this checklist so your screenshot and exported data are easy to understand later (or by someone else).

What to include in your report

  1. A screenshot (PNG) or report (PDF) showing the final alignment and angle reading.
  2. What you measured (object/diagram) and where the vertex is located.
  3. Your baseline definition: which edge/axis you aligned to and why.
  4. Tool settings that matter: 180° vs 360°, snap mode/step, and guides/grid usage.
  5. The measurement list: point order, angle values, and any derived values you used.
  6. Any uncertainty notes (blur, perspective, approximate edge) and how you handled it.

Which exports to attach

  • PNG for quick sharing and embedding into docs.
  • PDF when you want a single file that bundles screenshot + readings.
  • CSV/Excel/JSON when you need numbers for analysis or re-use.
