I am thinking to design a little huge model (around H:150cm L:100cm W:50cm) by using LDD, but the problem is how can i know do i my final model reach the size requirement(any ruler in the program?) i am thinking if my result not match my size requirement, i have to design AGAIN! hope to hear any good idea form here. Many thanks

LDD is not adequate to manage such a large models. Even with a powerful PC, a few tens of thousands of bricks bring the software to hang.

About measuring the size of the model, it is easy considering that a classic 1x1 brick have a base of about 0,8 cm and it is almost 1 cm (0,96) high (more considerations here).

OK, i found that MLCad with the Dimensions information but LDD just didn't. as you saying, Do i shouldn't use LDD to begin the design because it will hang after reach a number of brick? LDD look more easy so i just thinking to build in there. MLCad is the only choose for big model?

If you want to do the math, a one stud brick is 0.8 cm wide, so 100cm is 125 studs. If the build is sparse, LDD should be OK with a project this size. After about 4 or 5000 elements it will start to bog down.
