How can I find the length of the profile when I select?

Hello,
unfortunately I don't know the application from which the images comes.
Is it in Modeling, Annotation, Modelmanager or what?
General recommendation: right click in the yellow input field and see what is offered there.
Often there are measurement functions.

Have a nice day 😉

profile-lenght.png is Creo ED/Direct Modeling another pic is Annotation BOM list.

I asked for a function that will automatically find the height when I click on the profile, that is, custom lisp.

you can

inquire the part's box size using Integration KIT function sd-inq-exact-box
subtract the start and end point (both are 3D Vectors) using Integration Kit function sd-vec-subtract
and take the maximum using common LISP function: (max delta-x delta-y delta-z)

if you do not have a small piece of a profile with a large cross-section it will work in many case.
