Object area

Hello,

Is there any way that I can quickly work out the area of my object from within the object? I have between 3 and 10 sides and I'd like to be able to output the area. The sides can all be irregular. If there isn't a quick way, are there any objects that use a calculation like this?

Thanks

Hi,

The only way that I could think of is to create a schedule as label tool might not be able to give justice on the info you need.

On the schedule, Criteria will be Object and the certain Surface you need. Add a Layer if necessary.
Fields will have Library Part Name and Surface Area.

Hope it helps.
