Measured Plane button
Use the Plane button to measure any flat or planar surface.
To create a measured plane, you must take a minimum of three hits on any flat surface. If you only use the minimum of three hits, it's best to select the points in a large triangular pattern that cover the widest area of the surface.
Example of a plane with four points
