Hello, I have created a new calibrated measurement according to this tutorial: https://help.pdf-xchange.com/pdfxe6/index.html?calibrate-measurement_ed.html
Is there a way to set this measurement as the default either for one document or for all documents? Currently I have to select it manually every time I measure something.
Thank you.

Hello prostredek,
Yes - you can set a style for annotations (the measurement tool is a type of annotation) as explained here:
How do I set the default style of annotations in PDF-XChange?
Kind regards,
Stefan

"Is there a way to set this measurement as the default either for one document or for all documents?" the OP wrote.
Good point!
Currently, the default is set for all documents. When I have two documents (plans) open at the same time and I have to measure in both of them, I have to change scales each time I change documents. It would be really great, if this were a per-document setting.
(Of course this might be desirable for other annotations, too. Depending on the particular use case. But for the measurement tool I think this is obviously better.)
Best regards

Hello, jotess
I spoke with the dev team on that possibilty, and I am afraid that the suggestion has been rejected at this time. For the foreseeable future, we do only plan to offer a single application wide "default" setting for measurements and comments.
Kind regards,
