Summary: Ability to use the dimension of a loop as a parameter and as a dimension to call out rather than just a measurement
Description: We need the ability to call out a dimension of a loop profile, not only as a parameter, but as a dimension within a sketch and on a drawing. For tube and wire length dimensions this would be particularly helpful, either to limit the length of tube or wire sections, or to know the length of a piece of tube or wire needed to meet the geometric path designed. It would also be helpful to have as a parameter in order to call out the loop length on a part drawing and place into a BOM to help produce cutlists and estimate material usage.
