The new tool is nice, but how do I set the origin to anything other than the lower left corner? I want to use it to measure distances between arbitrary points. There must be a shortcut (such as Shift+click) to set the origin, and the current origin must be indicated on the screen at all times while the tool is active. The shortcut to set the origin must be added to the tool's statusbar hint.
This seems to be a very recent regression, AFAICT introduced in r12601/12602 (no bug filed yet).
Filed as - Bug #1232494 "trunk: measure tool always starts to measure at (0,0) (desktop coords) (rev >= 12602)" https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1232494
Test with r12600 or earlier revisions - the origin of the measured distance / angle is exactly where the user clicked and started to drag.
