Length section curve

I'm a mechanical design,

I need to measure a lenght of section curve.

Actually I work with PROE WF4 or CREO8

Why with a singolar measure, exact with geometrical calculate, is different of a measure with

section curve.

On example 2667.4601versus 3984.22.

Many thanks for the answer.

You have a feature with overlapping lines in your model.

Please check feature N° 18 named "EXTR_PASSATE" and delete all 3 overlapping lines in the sketch.

After that the measured length will be correct.

It is not clear what you are trying to do and your example images are identical.  So please explain again.

Sorry, in the hurry,

there is two images with different mode to measure length.

Well, the basic answer is that either method should yield the same number.

e.g., I tried this in Creo4 and I get the same answer in both "modes":

So, from the information you provided, I am not sure what clue to give you about where things have gone strange.

And your pictures still don't quite make sense to me - in that you seem to have 2x the edges selected in the one-to-one example vs the one where the curve from cross section is measured; yet that analysis yields a smaller number?
