Hello,

Here’s my question : What’s the command line which return the lenght of a selected curve?

I know that we can access the info with “shift"+"enter", but I would like to script that in order to include the operation in a more complex script.

Thanks for your help.

Look for ‘GetCurveLength’ command in the manual.

logmessage (GetCurveLength(Selection(0))(0));

edit:
or

logmessage(Selection(0).ActivePrimitive.Geometry.Curves(0).Length);
