This discussion comes up on a regular basis. Here is one of our distinguished user's take on the subject:
Can it be made better with what we currently have? You can always put each specific measurement type on a custom tool bar. I don't see the value in doing this. I will select Distance or Diameter quite often just to have the tool I need on hand.
It has been to long since I used the old version to remember it but I do remember it being easier to use than it was with my first encounter in Creo. I just put it behind me and moved forward. My biggest issue with it today is the persistent window where it won't just close on its own if my mind has already moved on.
