Is it possible to find out the length of the curve?

If I have a curved curve, is it possible to somehow get another curve equal to the size of my curved curve?
Maybe there is such a script ?

Is a curve ever not curved?

Can you illustrate what you mean? It's a bit unclear what you're asking for.

There is a closed curve for follow paz

The task is to get a straight line equal to the size of that curve, this is necessary for a smooth distribution of objects by follow paz

This is a good function, but I'm not a programmer, unfortunately, and it’s impossible for me to get a solution to this problem

try this:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/7vr3glc3 ... e.lua/file


put the .lua file in your custom folder e.g. C:\Users\{{your custom folder path}}\scripts\menu\Draw

select one or more points on the curve you want "flattened" then run it as a menu script -- you'll get a line (made of just 2 points) from the centre of your screen towards the right -- you can then move it wherever you want

If that's not what you want / some of the above is not clear, just ask....

Thank. This is what is really needed, it optimizes and reduces a lot of time, thank you!!!

updated to be more resilient to errors and to deal with multiple selected (or partially selected) curves - the "reference line" is now centred on the centre of the curve -- same link
