Allow custom distance for angle probing #45

Closed sttts closed 3 years ago

sttts commented 3 years ago

When probing the angle of an object, the distance between the two measurement points is very small (1mm or 2?), leading to inprecise results. With rectangular object I would want to have the measurements 10 or 20mm apart.

After reading the code of the subroutine, this is edge_width, isn't it? So there is rather a lack of docs for that feature.

Yes, it is in fact the distance between the 2 measuring points.
