Measuring a path's length

Use the Measure command to measure the length of a path, or a portion of it.

NX displays all the available measurements based on the objects you select, and the filters and measurement methods you use.

For example, if you select a single segment, NX displays the length of that segment. If you select two points on a path, NX displays the distance between the two points.

You can easily display a measurement as a length annotation in the graphics window.

For more information, see Fundamentals → Measuring and entering values → Measure.
