Here’s a small curve area helper. Select a closed curve and run the command.
It calculates the area, shows the result in a popup, then copies it to the clipboard.
Works from any view.
Other notes/config details are in the text file. May expand later, but working well for now.
Video might follow pending operator firmware updates.
A = π × 150²
A = 70,685.83 mm²
A = 0.0707 m²

Very nice.
But why use square meters instead of the "unit system" specified in Moi's options?
I model using millimeters, and your function gives me values like 0.00 m².
Moi's detail function also provides the area.
You just need to take the curve, create a plane of it, and then request the area detail.
Your script allows you to get the area more quickly, but I think keeping the "unit system" would be preferable.
Thanks
