Hello,
I am following your online course Illustrator. I am using it to draw a.o. floor plans.
I am working with sqm and need to work with paths in different angles.
For example:
Here above you see a square of 40x40mm. Under it you see the same square turned and on its right you see the square in a complete different shape.
How can I define the sqm (or m2) of these 2 shapes, when the square is rotated or not a rectangle anymore?
If found more information on a website:

The first option : Cmd-Shift-Option-F12
Is already too complicated and I think maybe not the best way to find out what the surface of the path is.
The second option is a zip, but since the post was in 2007 (talking about CS2/3) the zip is no longer available.
Could you tell me where I can find in Illustrator CS5 the surface of any kind of path/shape ?
I hope my question is clear – if not, please let me know in order for me to present my problem more detailed.
Thank you
