Download (9k)

Use this script to evaluate and modify the length of nurbs curves. When evaluating the length with multiple nurbs curves selected the average length of all selected curves will be calculated.

Setting the length will scale the curve to match the defined Curve Length without altering the shape. The Pivot option defines, where to place the pivot temporarily for the scale operation.

Note: Increasing the number of CV's will also increase calculation accuracy.
