You can measure the area of a closed profile in a workplane. If the workplane contains more than one closed profile, Creo Elements/Direct 3D Access calculates and displays the total area of all profiles.
To measure an area
1. Click Analysis and then, in the Measure group, click Workplane. The Area Props dialog box opens.
2. If necessary, specify the workplane containing the profile.
3. Click to complete the operation.
Creo Elements/Direct 3D Access displays the measured area.
You can click Report to save the result to a file. However, the calculated result cannot be used as input in a calculation. To mark the center of gravity, the principal axes, and the radii of gyration of the profile, click the Mark check box.
