the end of the tape measure can be hooked to the end of an object and then dynamically pulled away from it like real life. I find that sometimes the hook is too small and the end comes loose a bit too easy. You've just got to go slow and low when using the dynamic hook.

When the tape measure first came out, I suggested having a pivot lock for the end of the tape measure, but the developer didn't deem it necessary to pursue anything like that at the time. Maybe he can make the dynamic hook a little larger so it stays on the object you're trying to hook it over a little better

This is definitely something that I can consider adding, especially with the addition of the aux input - good idea.

Sorry for bringing up such an old thread, but I find myself spending a lot of time to just put the tape measure on the right position, and then having to bump it slightly to make sure it is aligned both on the end near the edge and on the other end.
Has there anything been made to assist in this process?

No, I haven't made any adjustments to the tape measure mechanisms, but thank you for reminding me about this topic. Setting a reminder for myself to think more on this.
