Allow Universal Viewer to move a distance measurement annotation when page scroll is enabled without having to click distance measurement icon

No description provided
Description

"The ask is when a certain mouse combo is assigned to measurement ("Left + Right" and "Middle mouse" are only viable options), and user takes a measurement using one of these; it should also trigger a switch to measurement mode (i.e. assign left click to measure function, i.e. measurement icon in toolbar should be activated) so as to allow the user do the subsequent actions such as adjusting and moving the measurement around the screen. As things currently are, when user clicks Left+Right to take a measurement and then immediately wants to use left click to move the measurement around, they can't do that since the left click is still bound to "scroll" function. They have to manually switch by clicking the measurement icon in the toolbar, which defeats the purpose of using a mouse shorthand."
