How can I measure the shortest distance between 2 or more components in the Up front data loader version of Hyperview?

Traditional hyperview has a measurement option for "minimum distance" and allows you to select 2 groups of components and will calculate the minimum distance between the components during the entire event. Per Altair recommendation, after having difficulty with hyperview crashing frequently, I have switched to the Up Front Data Loader user profile. I am finding this to be much faster than traditional Hyperview, however I can not recreate this measurement method. Thanks

    Hi,Lauren Monsanty

    I'm using HyperView 2020 and didn't find the problem you find.

    This might be a bug

    The upfront loader profile is available only in the new user interface from 2021.1. 

    In this new user interface, minimum distance can be found by Right clicking in the browser area>Create>measure
