[iOS] Partometer - camera measure tool for measuring on pictures and photos: Angle Mode improved.

Angle Mode in Partometer v1.4
Partometer update v1.4 brings the ability to measure angles with two separate rulers. It can be useful for measurement of angles that are not visible or partially visible on a picture. Also it comes handy for pipe bend measurements as shown in the picture.

How it works:
- go to Settings
- activate Independent Rulers in Angle Mode and Save
- move each edge of the angle independently
- see Angle = ... result even if measured angle is not visible on the screen.



Important condition for accurate measurements here is to keep object plane parallel to the camera plane to avoid picture distortion.

This video from Android version of the app demonstrates the idea of angle measurements with independent rulers:

- add start point,  otherwise last point will be used as a start point

- make a SHORT /  LONG touch on "My location" button to call input dialog

- enter exact distance and angle / bearing

- CHECK, if you want to use relative angle (calculated  from the direction to the last point, opposite to the direction to the North.

- use +/- buttons to add or remove points
