No width or length in properties, geometry

Hi
I can't see the width or length when I check propreties for a for eg. 3d cube in Properties, geometry.

 


How can I see width and length, not only height, of 3d cubes?

HI @Anonymous,

 

Your solid in the video was created by using an extrusion. Try using BOX to create the solid and then you will see all those properties. I am not sure why they don't display the same for geometry that looks the same but was created differently.

Because a polyline in the shape of a square doesn't have WIDTH and LENGTH properties? Well a line and polyline have a length property but it doesn't mean the same thing for a polygon.

The LIST command will at least tell you the bounds of it in all three directions, if that will serve:

 

                  3DSOLID   Layer: "0"
                            Space: Model space
                   Handle = 1d0
         History = None
    Show History = No
      Solid type = Extrusion
 Extrusion height: 3.2500
      Taper angle: 0
   Bounding Box: Lower Bound X = 11.4434  , Y = 10.4203  , Z = 0.0000
                          Upper Bound X = 17.2093  , Y = 14.7613  , Z = 3.2500

Hi,

 

>> The LIST command will at least tell you the bounds of it in all three directions, if that will serve:

Just want to add ... as long as the object is not rotated.

You get the orthogonal extents, which are then showing larger values in case the object is not parallel to X/X/Z

 

In case the object is rotated you might first use command _UCS to define a ucs you want to have as base for _LIST command return values.
