Begin the measurement as directed. Keep clicking to define the polygon and then double-click to end it. As soon as a second vertex is added, the Measurement window displays. The area is shown in this window and on screen as the cursor moves.
Click New Measurement to reset the drawn polygon and begin a new measurement.
Use the Unit drop down list to set the measurement units (e.g., square feet, square meters, acres, etc.).
