Hola. Alguien sabe si ilustrator cuenta con una herramienta para medir trazos lineales? Con sumatoria.
Es para medir la cantidad de trazo que hay, en un sacabocado.

Ej: metros lineales de 4 cuadrados.
Desde ya gracias

In the panel menu select "Objects" and then select your objects. 

 

Is that what you want?

Leanmar,

 

How about this free script by 佐藤浩之 (Satō Hiroyuki)?

 

http://shspage.com/aijs/en/#path_length

 

If you select all the paths (such as the 4 squares you mentioned) and run the script, you will get the path length = "fleje" of each as text object and also the total path length = "fleje", all of them as text objects in mm with 2 decimals.

 

You may also like some of the other free scripts.

No, necesito que me sume las lineas a en mm o metros. Esto es para el caso de los troqueles, calcular el costo de los mismo, ya que me indicaria cuantos metros de "fleje" se necesitan para el troquel. El corel se que tiene algo asi, pero yo trabajo todo en Ai.

Gracias.

Are you trying to measure the length of selected paths? If so, the Document Info palette will do what Monica says. But you have to check "Objects" in the flyout menu. It will show the total length of selected paths at the top of the list of details. CorelDRAW can show path lengths in its Properties palette, but it will only display path lengths of single paths and combined compound paths, not groups of paths. Neither application has the built-in ability to provide total area of selected paths.

 

Astute Graphics' Dynamic Measure tool can display path area. But it has some annoying limitations. It will give you only the path area of a path the tool is hovering over. So a compound path would have to be measured twice so the negative area can be subtracted from the positive area. The tool won't measure more complex paths. I don't know if there is another plugin available which will accurately provide the path area of multiple selected paths. There was a free plugin from a Russian company called Telegraphics that could provide path area and path length details of multiple selected paths. But it only works with old versions of Adobe Illustrator.
