Hello, i registered there because i have a request.  
I would like a button to get the surfaces of a selected objet in the scene.  
For example : i have a GLB file of a house, i would like : when you select an object named exterior walls in the scene explorer, you have in the properties : Surface : 42.5 m² like the function “3D Print” in \>Blender.  
Best regards.
