Alibre Design addon for measuring entity and edge lengths.
- Measure lengths of 2D/3D sketches and 3D edges
- Supports lines, arcs, circles, ellipses, B-splines, and circular arcs
- Unit selection (centimeters, etc.) with a dropdown
- Auto-Measure mode for quick selection-based measurement
- Displays total length and entity count summary
- Tabular results with type, length, start/end coordinates, and geometric details
- Copy Results button for exporting measurements to clipboard
Download and run MeasureLengths-1.0.0-Setup.exe. The addon scripts are installed to:
C:\Program Files\Alibre Design Add-Ons\MeasureLengths\
- Open a part or assembly in Alibre Design
- Launch the Measure Lengths addon
- Select edges or sketches in the viewport
- View individual and total length measurements in the results table
- Click Copy Results to copy the formatted output to your clipboard
Note: Hold shift to add to the selection to measure multiple sketches or edges at once. The results will update dynamically as you select or deselect entities.
