Ilogic Rule to measure loop length

[st3v3]

I’m looking for some help if possible

i have just started to use illogic, what i want to do is measure the length of a loop in a sketch and then use this measurement as a parameter.

I have found this rule that will measure the loop length and dispaly it in a message box

Dim se As SketchEntity = ThisDoc.Document.ComponentDefinition.Sketches(1).SketchLines(1) 

MsgBox(ThisApplication.MeasureTools.GetLoopLength(se)*10 & " mm") 

but i do not know how to capture the measurement as a parameter

Thanks in advance

there is a way around to do this:

Parameter("Length")= ThisDoc.Document.ComponentDefinition.Sketches.Item(1).Profiles.Item(1).RegionProperties.Perimeter * 10

 But to make a region you have to extrude your first sketch. Then you will have acces to this parameter (perimeter 😉 )
