    Is length of a POLYLINE a property? Example: in Acad2000 I draw a Pline
    with l1 vertices. I then ask for a LIST
    of this pline ... I get a dump of this polyline as a LWPOLYLINE's in the
    AutoCAD Text Window... and it's length is listed.
    But when I use Properties, there is no length mentioned. Qselect also
    appears to have no idea about polyline lengths.
    and yet both Qselect and Properties know about area ... giving the same area
    even if I don't close the polyline. This
    last point is doubly confusing to me. But my main concern is that length
    should be a property if area is...
