Perimeter | Perimeter, in working units, of a closed planar element. |
Surface Area | Area of a closed planar element or the surface area of solids in square working units. |
Volume | Volume enclosed by a solid, in cubic working units. |
Mass | Mass, computed by multiplying the Length, Surface Area, or Volume by the Mass Per <Length/Area/Volume> setting. |
Centroid | Coordinates, in working units, of the center of mass. Indicated graphically with a highlighted cross hair if the Display Centroid tool setting is on. |
