Can you explain what you mean without saying "like CAD"?
Distances are or can be in meters, and it is normal to have a scale on
a map.  So I don't know if this is about representing length
conceptually or about labels with lengths, or ?

Perhaps a link to what you have and what the specific complaint is would  help.
