Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened Hints
How do I measure a footprint?
1 of 4: To measure something, move the tape measure to a starting position, click and hold the left mouse button, drag the tape measure to an ending position, then release the left mouse button.
2 of 4: For the footprints, you can move the tape measure to the top of a print, then click and hold while dragging the tape measure down to the print's bottom.
3 of 4: You can also measure a print bottom-to-top, and it doesn't matter which of the two clearest prints you measure.
4 of 4: When you do it right, you'll get a comment from Holmes, plus an entry added to your portfolio's reports page.
