Hi,
If you have lines, just use the field calculator, add a length field
and use "$length" (with no quotes) in the expression box. If you CRS
is in meters, you will get meters.

Hi,
Thanks, I didn't thought about this tool but it can do the job.
Having the ability to follow the line in the measure tool would be
simpler for QGIS beginners, though.
BR,
Jérémie.

The closest I can think of is to use the 'Shortest path
(point-to-point)' tool from the Processing Toolbox. It will allow
you to select 2 points on your line layer and give you an output
line with the distance along the line as an attribute/

Hi,
I am wondering if it's possible to use the Measure distance
tool to measure the distance between two places, following a line.
For example, I click on a first place on the line, I click on
a second place and the tool automagically follow the line.
Same behavior as what we can do with the use of automatic
tracing for geaometrie creations.
BR,
Jérémie.
