Cable length 1

[3576]

Is there a method which will give me the length of the cable (using vb code)?

What I ment by cable is a AcadLWPolyline.

Thanks,

Does the AcadLWPolyline have a property called length?
I'm not sure, I will do some more searching on Monday when i'm back at work.

I checked the properties for AcadLWPolyline and it does not have the length property. However, if I enter a "list" at the command prompt and select a cable it does show me the length. I assume that there is a method of getting that information, I just don't know one.

Thanks for checking into this.

I did a quick search on afralisp.com

http://www.google.com/custom?hl=en&...ne+length&btnG=Search&sitesearch=afralisp.com

check out the first couple of links. they discuss how to find the length of an arc, anf apply it in a loop to a polyline based on the number of coordinates.

hope you find the anwser you need.
