Measuring slab Perimeter

Anonymous — Thu, 25 May 2023 16:01:39 GMT

Did a search and surprisingly nothing though I thought this was covered before. But anyway, does anybody know if it's possible to measure a slab perimeter (or a couple of walls for that matter)? I tried the zone tool hoping (remembering something), but still nothing.

Ideas would be greatly appreciated (another job left for the very last minute).

Have you tried WINDOWS menu > FLOATING PALETTES > SHOW ELEMENT INFORMATION

WoW... THANKS!!!

It only works for slabs right? Why not fills also? It'd be easier... but at least it works. Thanks again.

I meant that it doesn't give you the perimeter of fills.

Thanks again for the help guys. I'd heard about this... "window", but I dodn't use it much (or at all) and lost it...

Sure it does (the Element Information that is).
Its just called "Circumference" rather than "Perimeter".
