In my drawing, the dynamic measuring of distances and radii under cursor stopped working. Question mark icon is displayed instead of the measured date.

Dynamic (quick) measuring in the MEASUREGEOM command works only in a plan (top) view respective to the the current UCS. Please check if you have a UCS (or WCS) in the current view plane, or if you have set an orthographic view.
