Hi,

I am using Creo 3 and I am looking for a solution how to add the total curve length to the drawing.

When you measure this curve you are getting the total length.

 

thank you.

If you searched for something like "Creo using measurement in relation" or some such you would find lots of info about how to setup a feature that stores your analysis results so you can use them later in relations. Something like this:

Measured Dimension to Relation

If you can save analysis results to a feature and access them, you should be able to use the same techniques to pull them into a drawing as a note.

HI @KenFarley 

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

How to add this parameter to the note?

 

Sorry for the silly question but I am using Creo for 4 months only and find it very difficult.

Also, you can create a datum curve using points and add fillet. Later, measure Curve length and and save that measure result as feature. Create a parameter to get the value of parameter as value of length using relation  <Param>=LENGTH:FID_<Measure_Feature_Name>. This Param cal call in drawing to display the value. 

Share the file, if you can for further points.
