Get wire length from net segment length

Hello,

is there any way to get wire lengths from the net segment length?

 

I don't have a mechanical cad routing bridge license, so i made some curves in Creo and then added their lengths as the net segment length. But when i use the built in BOM script, the wire length is zero. I tried also to assign the length in the "Connection properties/Wires", but this parameter defines length of the whole wire, not only the part in the net segment.

 

Thanks for any advices.

  are you using formboard or regular schematic to create this routing in e3? There are customizations that will allow you to get the net segment calculated as the wire length but not the default report. 

  This is readily done in formboard since it is one to one and E3 knows the exact lengths

  I am using E3.Cable, without formboard.
