Block length annotation

[RubberDinero]

I built a block that has an array function when stretched and it works great, but I'm trying to add an annotation just above it that shows it's total length. 

 

I want to be able to work at different scales and be accurate.

 

For example, if the block is 1 scale and it's stretched 100 feet(or 100 units from origin), it'll say 100 on top of it. if I scale that same block to 20 and I stretch it 100 feet from origin it'll say 100'.

 

My current set up that I have works well at  1 scale, but if I blow it up by 20 and stretch the block by 100, i get 1/20th of the length, 5'. 

 

Any help approaching this issue is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Create an Attribute inside your dynamic block and use Field in the attribute value

You might need to post the block.

@nod684This worked perfectly by adding "Blockplaceholder/Distance1(name of my linear parameter)"!!!

 

Thank you!!
