Is Adobe interested in creating a tool for measuring angles in Photoshop?

[Guest]

I work more then 8 years with photoshop. Like how it is today and offers me a lot of tools to go to work and make digital art. A tool to measure angles could be useful when i want to calculte an angle, to find the middle for a symetric cut or 3, 4 or more part that could fit into one piece(360°). Such tool is usefull for a lot of things and i believe that Photoshop should have such tool. Is Adobe going to develop a tool where you can measure angles in Photoshop?

Hi there,

That's an interesting suggestion but we do not have any official communication related to this. You can submit a feature request for such a tool here: https://feedback.photoshop.com/

This forum is monitored directly by our developers. They can check the feasibility of your request & may implement it in a future update.

Regards,

Nikunj

In case you weren't aware, you can measure angles with the Ruler Tool and record measurements using the Measurement Log.

After you draw out one line using the Ruler Tool press Alt or Option to draw out the second line and you can see the Angle in the Tool Options Bar and Info panel.

You can also use the line tool in a similar fashion, but without the ability to use the measurement log.

Jeff posted a good answer; I was making the animation below at the same time so I will add it too. You can use both the Measurement tool and the Measurement Log panel, and if you want to use the data to make calculations, the Measurement Log panel lets you export the data.
