Autocad Polyline Length Sum

broken image


I have a problem hopefully someone might have a workaround that i haven't thought of,here goes! I work for the city of Barcelos (Portugal) in the electrical department, After we conclude the drawing part, we have to sum up all the lighting units and cable that will be needed, for the units i make blocks out of them giving tem reference names (ex. Dorus ) then use qselect to select the blocks and within seconds i get the sum of the blocks that exist in the drawing with that name,easy right, problem comes from the cable part, where i have to convert the lines into polylines then use the length command to get the length then write down on paper and at the end sum it all up to get the final count. I tried to use qselect but in the properties tab length just says 'VARIES' . Is there a way to sum up all the polylines length values to reach a total value, whether it be by qselect, filter, all on the same layer, hell even programing a routine.If anyone can help, i´ll give my word that i´ll put a good word for you in heaven, unless of course i don´t get in but thats a whole new story. Thanks for listening.

Im starting to think its something i am doing wrong but cant figure out what, i dug out my old back up base station that has acad 2012 on it, tried wpipe on that and it did exactly the same, right angle instead of arc. Ronso i will try your suggestion tomorrow.
