Short description of error
Short video illustrating the problem

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Use the measure tool to measure for example one edge of the default cube.
Now move your view in between the two points. The line should now point in the wrong direction

Here's the default file with a measurement already added:

measuretoolbug.blend

Hi, thanks for the report.

Can confirm that if one of the points is behind the viewport camera then the measure line is incorrect.
