LOS Tool?

Any plans on adding a Line of Sight Tool to help measure if you have line of sight to another token.  I don't mean the dynamic lighting stuff.  Just a straight line like the measurement tool.  The problem with the measurement tool is it only (at least what I've tried) snaps to the middle of a square.  In Pathfinder you check LOS via the corners.  The measurement tool would work perfectly for a squad leader game.  Hmm maybe I should try getting a squad leader game going.  Roll20 shoudl work just fine.  Hmmm maybe not, squad leader is hexes and there are still lots of problems with hexes. :(
Perhaps just having the measurment tool snap to the closest corner or center would be the best. I am not sure if it is the easiest way though.

If you hold down Alt while using the measurement tool there is no snapping. In general hold down Alt to temporarily deactivate snapping to grid for most functions of Roll20.  I use the Roll20 measurement tool (corner to corner) to check line of sight in Pathfinder. It works great :) - Gauss
