Measure surface area of multiple faces?

Hi all,

Is there a way to measure the surface area of multiple faces in a body (the default seems allow two at most and reports individual face surface area values rather than the sum) but not the entire body or component? I've seen in Inventor there is an add symbol in the measure tab but does not seem to be present in Fusion 360.

Thanks

What you are asking is not available with the measure tool. If you right click on a body or component and select properties, you can see the surface area for the entire body.

Thank you for the reply. I was aware of the ability to measure complete surface area of the body but not quite what I was hoping for. This seems to be a limitation with the current revision of the software. Thank you again.
