| Oct 7, 2020 at 15:12 | comment | added | MarcM | That is correct. I was not aware that the map is not georeferenced. | |

| Oct 7, 2020 at 15:07 | comment | added | svenema | @MarcM, Nice one. It certainly seems that it will do the trick, provided that it can be tamed into reflecting the correct scale. | |

| Oct 7, 2020 at 14:50 | comment | added | svenema | I have a "flat" map, containing roads and points of interest. Roads are not straight, so I'm looking for a way to measure distances in pixels, which I can convert back to miles. I'll try to rephrase the question to make that more clear. | |
| Oct 7, 2020 at 14:43 | comment | added | MarcM | Your question is not clear to me; do you want to manually measure distances on a map or do you want to want to connect points with polylines and get their distances? | |
