measure

[doriano]

Good evening to all
I need simple information (unfortunately I don't remember how to do it) I have to measure the area of a sketch.
Thank you.

I think you should at least create a filling surface of the curves built in the sketch, otherwise by selecting a edge, only measure that entity. . .

menu/visualize/barra of instruments/measure and then customize by clicking "area", then with the gauge measures the surface created

thanks gianni55
sometimes it is necessary to measure the area of a sketch before making solid, but apparently there is no such opportunity.

gianni does not speak of solid extrusion, but of flat surface, base, which fills the sketch.

grace drop but I realized that it meant flat surface, it is that measure that I can't do it.
Thank you.

the area is by definition the measure of the extension of a surface or in the case of a solid the sum of the surfaces that compose it, instead the curves, are on the plane of the sketch or three-dimensional, are one-dimensional entities not measurable as surface.

It is true that there are software more related to architectural use than in drawing a plant automatically generates the surface, giving you the corresponding square meters at the same time, but I don't think caia... If you have this need, obviously the sketch you do is still a study, which is not closed until you find a congruous value with your needs. . .

Perhaps if you place an example we can help you better, maybe you can develop a macro (I am not able).

Hi.

 

[goccia]

as it says, you do the sketch analysis.

I would like to ask the Commission to give its opinion on this matter.
I send a demo that I believe can help
in cases similar to this ...

in the attached file I created a parameter
that fixes a limit area... (changeable to pleasure)
it is clear the sketch I will perform could exceed or not this limit.. .

comfort is that through rules
I can:

1-change color to the sketch output in case the limit is exceeded (then receive a visual signal)2-receiving a video message that signals me if the profile is "good" or "bad"the whole is done by inserting, as you will see some parameters; a measure that detects the area
of the sketch, a limit parameter, and two rules, one for the change of color
and one for the message-
as you will see in the file are inserted both.. .
just click on rule and check (disable) to use only one ,
what you believe most useful to report to you the achievement and
overcoming your limit, preceding fixed-

Thanks I think you've got the problem and as far as I'm concerned.
