How to get length of a curve?

[lemelman]

I have a curved line made up from lines, arcs, and splines, destined to be the path of a pipe. How can I find the length of the path, and hence the length of the pipe? Searching the documentation didn't help.

Hi,

The creation of a "plane on path" helps.

Thanks Guenther,

That worked really well, a very clever solution.
