Hi there,



I’ve already conducted GM analysis using tps software but I need to go
back and get basic measurements (length and width). I believe I can use
the Linear Distance Measurement tool in tpsDig2 but it gives the
measurements in pixels. How do I convert this to a distance measure –
either mm or cm?



OR is there an even easier method? Can I somehow ask the program (or
another program) to simply calculate the distance between the two most
extreme landmarks I’ve already added?



Any help would be much appreciated!

Cheers

Rachel
