    Hi - the replies on stackexchange aren't so bad ;-)

    (https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/132843/set-line-length-in-inkscape)

    The ideal solution is the one that sets the width (length) before rotating.

    The solution with the measure tool is the second fastest listed there, I think.

    The other one with the guide and rotation etc. is a bit slower, I believe.
