Drawing a polyline over a sketch / contour

Hi Team,

I need to measure the length of the sketch which is imported from a pdf. It is like a map of a place. I am drawing polylines along the shape and it is a very hectic task. Is there any way to quickly measure the length of this shape/contour or any easier way to automatically trace a polyline around the shape. This way I can measure the length of the polyline.

 

Warm Regards

The free-to-subscribers add-on RASTER DESIGN makes tracing over images like that a more precise experience

LIST command (and PROPERTIES) will show the total length of a continuous PLINE: it's been a long-term ability.
