CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 Line Length

Line Length

Can CorelDraw X4 calculate the length of a curve, meaning if I have an organic shape or curve, can it calculate the true length of the line if you follow the path. (think miles on a road)

I'm trying to estimate the time it would take a CNC machine to cut along an exported path.

Thanks

Hi.

Draw can approximate it very closely.

Here's a free macro that should work for you. It has 2 modes.

John,

Thanks much, so the Actual Size is the length of the path, correct?
