Inquire Curve Length (3D/2D)

 

Invoked ByInquire go to Curve (Part/Sketch/Sheet/CAM Level)

 

Measure Curve Length0352.gifUse this command to inquire the length of a line, arc, curve, or edge. You can also inquire a length summation by selecting multiple items to measure.

 

The Variable option (3D Only) can be used to assign the queried distance to a variable and log the variable to the active part's history. This contributes to the "family-of-parts" functionality by allowing the part to be driven during a history regen by variables derived from queried distances.
 

  1. Select a line, arc, curve, or edge to measure. The length appears in the Current Curve field.

  2. Select another line, arc, curve, or edge or move. Move the cursor over additional items. The new length and total length for each is displayed in the Last Curve and Summation fields.

  3. Pick OK to close the form.
