i would do it with a float_script controller:
disableRefMsgs()
delete objects
enableRefMsgs()
(
global txt = textplus name:#test pos:[0,0,30] dir:-y_axis alignment:0 isselected:on wirecolor:red
scr = point name:#source pos:[0,0,0] wirecolor:green
trg = point name:#target pos:[100,0,0] wirecolor:yellow
title = "Distance(m) : "
txt.setPlaintextString title
txt.setvalueastext -1 "Distance" #script #whole 0 0 true
ss = txt.baseobject[#Distance].controller = float_script()
ss.addnode "source" scr
ss.addnode "target" trg
ss.setexpression "distance source target"
txt
)
PS… “(m)” – miter units is an example. of course you have to use your own (or scene current)
