LPL – Sum Lengths and Label the Total (Free AutoCAD LISP)

11th August 2026

FREE AUTOCAD LISP

LPL — total length of your selection, placed as a label

Select any mix of lines, polylines, splines, arcs, circles and ellipses, and LPL adds up their true curve length and places the total as a text label wherever you point.

Skip the point and it prints the total on the command line instead. The label height follows your annotation scale.
