<p dir="ltr">Hi,<br>
I guess you are using the open layer plugin. If so, Google layer go all funny on you if you zoom too much. Vectorize a line in a shp file and see if the background moves. If most likely will. If so, the problem is not with the measuring tool but with the Google layer.</p>

Hello all.
<br /><br />I just noticed that the "Measure line" tool is returning a distance
<br />measurement that is dependent from the zoom level when I'm using the
<br />Google satellite plugin. (increasing the zoom level results in a shorter
<br />distance)
<br /><br />This is of course wrong, and the question is whether or not this could
<br />be related to my setup or it is just a bug.
<br /><br />Tnx for help in advance.
<br /><br />Marco
