add measurement check shortcut ctrl+left mouse button. when you press ctrl+ left mouse button, a status bar displays the number inbetween any number of points selected distance. actual line shouldn't be drawn on grid when a measurement tool shortcut is activated through ctrl+left mouse button. if adding shortcut is impossible, then add some button near grid ui adjustment control elements to trigger that measurement tool on/off to show the numbers of points in distance mesured in status bar. output only full page code.: const canvas = document.getElementById('canvas');
