Tape measure — use, checks & patch context

Work order / direct answer

Use the measuring interaction where the current objective asks for it. Separate measuring from the later drill interaction when diagnosing a blocked tool.

Match the task

Use the measuring interaction where the current objective asks for it. Separate measuring from the later drill interaction when diagnosing a blocked tool.

Behavior to distinguish

Record the measurement prompt and which tool you selected next. Completing a measurement does not prove that the following drilling action remained usable: the official fix specifically concerns a later interaction becoming blocked. If measuring itself never starts, that is a different symptom to report. Do not convert a screenshot's dimensions into a material coverage or purchasing formula.

Patch record

Update 6: Using the tape measure can leave later drilling or other interaction blocked.

Purchase and recovery boundary

Only buy a replacement when the current task and item identity match. This page does not invent a price, durability value or material coverage ratio. Use the relevant symptom checklist before altering a good save.
