ISketchTool.DistanceConstraint Property

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Property DistanceConstraint As Double

[C#]
public double DistanceConstraint {get; set;}

Available with ArcGIS Desktop.

Gets/sets length constraints applied to the sketch tool.

This returns the current distance constraint that may have been established, for example, through the Sketch Tool context menu item 'Length'. This property can also be set, and in order to activate the distance constraint the Constraint property must be set to esriConstraintDistance. (see example code, where esriConstraintAngle is used )
