Adding arc length for a rev cloud to quick properties

Is there a way to add the "arc length" of a revcloud to the quick properties to allow for it to be changed in quick properties.

I don't see that option in CUI command where those types of edits would be set

The arc length must be chosen during your revcloud creation. AutoCAD doesn't give you the option of modifying the arc length after-the-fact.

 

The easy way:

  1. Draw a 'boundary' using the polyline command. 
  2. Start REVCLOUD conmand=>A=>enter arc length on command line=>ENTER=>O for object=>select your boundary
  3. Reverse direction=>Y or N?=>ENTER

If unsatisfied with the appearance, U=>ENTER for undo=>Then repeat steps 1 thru 3 again.

Ah, I see. Properties palette, not Quick Properties.

@ChicagoLooper I believe the OP wishes to extend what is available in PROPERTIES to QPM, because, why not, it seems logical to most of us.

But as my reply noted, Autodesk "forgot" to do that or so it seems. So it's not an option. Another did-not-think-it-through AutoCAD shortcomming which is odd because QPM will list the object as a REVCLOUD.
