In ArchiCAD, both the fill tool and label tool give you a convient way to find the area of a polygon, but how do you find its perimeter??

Yes, with 8.x He is on 7 ...

If you have ArchiRuler, it has the Inspector that does what element information does. Otherwise, use the Calculate menu - select the polygon, and calculate it.
